Police in Kansas City search for woman missing since Thursday
In a search for a 21-year-old Raymore woman missing since Thursday night, police in Kansas City found the burned car she used by the road in the south part of town early Saturday.
Investigators said they consider Jessica Runions’ disappearance a suspicious missing persons case.
Police found Runions’ 2012 burned black Chevy Equinox about 2 a.m. Saturday near 95th Street and Blue River Road.
Kansas City police spokeswoman Capt. Stacey Graves said Missouri Search and Rescue were called to the area to conduct a field search that was suspended due to darkness. They planned to resume the search in daylight on Sunday. Police remained in the area overnight.
On Saturday night, detectives interviewed everyone they could find who might have seen Runions in the past few days, police said.
Investigators expected to continue the search on Sunday.
