A 19-year-old Castle Shannon woman who went missing after making a food delivery has been spotted in the South Hills, police said in an update on Thursday. 

Allegheny County police are asking for help finding Ginger Bloomer. In an update on Thursday, police said Bloomer was spotted in the South Hills area Wednesday afternoon, and while "right now indications are that she is not in any immediate danger," police said they still want to find her. 

Police said Bloomer picked up an order at a local Sheetz and made a food delivery on Pocono Drive in Green Tree around 5:05 a.m. on Tuesday. Until she was spotted in the South Hills, that was the last time anyone had seen her, prompting investigators to ask the public for help.

"There's so much information out there that's not verified. You know, we don't know for sure what's true and what's not. It's been an emotional rollercoaster," said family friend Matthew Williams.

Neighbors shared Ring doorbell footage of Bloomer dropping the food off in Green Tree. The video shows a white car pulling up to the home. One person exits the vehicle while another appears to be moving it. About 10 minutes pass before the car turns around at the dead-end street and leaves.

Her friends and family say they're just hoping she's safe and will return home soon.

"Her smile — just, they liked her just from seeing her smile. We really want to see her back. So many people are concerned. We'll do anything that we can," said Williams.

Police described Bloomer as 5-foot-4, weighing about 175 pounds. Detectives said she has red hair and hazel eyes. She was last seen wearing black shoes, black pants with white Reebok lettering on the front, a camouflage jacket and a dark colored beanie.

Police didn't provide any other details about the case but said they will continue to provide updates if anything changes. 

Anyone with information is asked to call 911 or the Allegheny County Police Department's General Investigations Unit at 412-473-1251.
