20-year-old college student is missing after going for an early morning beach walk while vacationing in the Dominican Republic.

University of Pittsburgh junior Sudiksha Konanki — a resident of Virginia’s Loudoun County and citizen of India — was last seen on Thursday, March 6, while walking on a beach at Riu Republica Resort in Punta Cana, according to the Dominican Civil Defense and a missing poster shared on social media. She was on a spring break trip, the poster stated.

Konanki was traveling with a group of six fellow Pittsburgh students, all female, including one other Loudoun County resident, a spokesperson for the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office (LCSO) told PEOPLE in a statement.

It is not immediately clear whether the group traveling with Konanki has returned from the trip or whether they were with her when she was last spotted.

Same as I said in the hazing death thread.

I can't imagine sending my kid to University only for them to turn up missing or dead.

Truly unfortunate, hope everything turns out alright. Best wishes to her and her family.

Not too long ago, four Pepperdine students were killed by some garbage person who was driving too fast down the PCH. No death is necessarily more "meaningful" than another, but productive, college aged students...damn.

First comment is crazy, but that poster is known for those kind of replies.

I've never been to Punta Cana, only Santo Domingo/Boca Chica/Juan Dolio. I'm not sure about the attitudes of the locals around there. Most likely she got done in by the water, or by other foreign tourists.
