TAMPA — Tampa's Gonzmart family has offered a $10,000 reward for information about a missing Brandon woman last seen in Ybor City early Thursday.

The family of Apryl Foster, 33, made an emotional plea to the public Monday, saying Foster is a reliable, dependable person who would not stay out of touch this long.

Foster worked at the Gonzmarts' Ulele restaurant in Tampa Heights on Wednesday night, then met up with friends in Ybor City. She left a bar in the early morning hours and was last seen walking alone on Seventh Avenue. She has not been heard from since.

Police said Tuesday that Premier Beverages was offering a $4,000 reward in addition to the $10,000 from the Gonzmarts. Clear Channel Outdoor donated the use of digital billboards. The family is offering another $1,000.

Anyone with information about Foster's disappearance is asked to call Tampa police at (813) 231-6130. Tips can also be given anonymously through Crime Stoppers; call 1-800-873-8477 toll-free.
