NW Bexar County business briefly closes after body found during search for missing 19-year-old Camila Mendoza Olmos
Burnin’ Bush plans to welcome public to pay respects following investigation; Body was found a few hundred yards from teen’s home
In a Facebook post, Burnin’ Bush said the closure on Wednesday is “out of respect for those involved and for the integrity of the ongoing investigation.”
“Our hearts and prayers are with the families and loved ones affected by this tragic event,” the post stated.
During the search for the missing teenager on Tuesday, Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar said investigators found a body in tall brush on the Burnin’ Bush property, a few hundred yards from where Mendoza Olmos was last seen. A gun was found next to the body.
Salazar said Tuesday it is too early to tell if the body is Mendoza Olmos, who was last seen on the morning of Dec. 24 outside her family’s home in the 11000 block of Caspian Spring.

Salazar said investigators were looking for a family member’s missing firearm. It’s still unclear if the recovered weapon is the same one reported missing.
The sheriff said investigators don’t suspect foul play but believe self-harm may be a “possibility.”
The clothing on the body matched one of the descriptions of Mendoza Olmos’ clothing when she disappeared, Salazar said.
In another Facebook post, Burnin’ Bush said it was “deeply saddened” about the incident.
“Our thoughts and prayers are with the family and loved ones of the individual during this incredibly difficult time. We are fully cooperating with local authorities and assisting with any questions as requested,” the post said.
The company said once the investigation is concluded, they would “welcome anyone who wishes to come onto the property to pay their respects.
