PUNTA CANA, Dominican Republic — An American linked to the disappearance of a University of Pittsburgh student has been spotted by NBC News with investigators, his father and his attorney on a beach in Punta Cana in the early hours of Sunday morning.
Joshua Riibe was seen pointing toward the sea while a group of security kept people away from the area.
Riibe might have been the last person to see Sudiksha Konanki, a 20-year-old University of Pittsburgh junior who went to Punta Cana on March 3 with five female friends for spring break. She was last seen around 4:15 a.m. on March 6 after going to the beach with friends.
Riibe's passport was confiscated on Friday by Dominican authorities as part of an ongoing investigation, his attorneys told NBC News.
Regional Red Cross Director Fernando Placeres told NBC News on Sunday that he had no information about whether a body had been found.
