Police in California are searching for a missing woman from Simi Valley after a “significant amount of blood” was found in her home, according to authorities.

Rachel Castillo, 25, was reported missing on Thursday night after her sister came home to see a large amount of blood, according to SFGate.

“As soon as I saw the blood, that’s when I realized something wasn’t right,” sister Emily Castillo told ABC7 Los Angeles. “So I called my mom to let her know to come over and then I immediately called 911.”
