CHAMBLEE, GA  - The Chamblee Police Department is searching for a mother they said went missing from her job in Atlanta in late October.

Police said on Wednesday Cecilia Bustamante, 42, was last seen frantically leaving her job at a Willie's restaurant at The AT&T Midtown Center building in Atlanta on October 28.

”However, she was first reported missing on December the Second. We feel that she has disappeared against her own free will. She has no money, no credit cards, no passport, said Captain Eesto Ford, with the Chamblee Police Department.

Police said it was an anonymous caller who reported her missing.

”It wasn’t even her husband that reported her missing but someone outside of the family and it’s almost five weeks after she was missing, said Captain Ford.

He said investigators don’t believe Mrs. Bustamante would easily leave her 7-year-old son, adding she has fallen off of social media.

”It just seems bizarre, said Captain Ford.

She is described as 5'03" tall, weighing 120 lbs.

In a release, police said she has ties to Baltimore, MD as well as the Philippines.

Police said if you make contact with Bustamante, to contact their detectives.
