Oregon police plan to search this week for a woman who vanished in June after her shirt was reportedly found a mile from her abandoned car.
Gwen Brunelle, 27, was last seen on June 27 at a Jordan Valley gas station store 83 miles from her home in Boise, Idaho, where she had left a day earlier. Malheur Enterprise reported that Brunelle left with her 11 show rabbits — which were discovered in her car when a sheriff’s deputy found it abandoned on June 30.
Brunelle’s bathrobe was reportedly found folded into a cushion near her vehicle.
An investigation was suspended on July 11, as authorities determined there was no evidence of foul play. However, Malheur County police plan to conduct another search for Brunelle on September 23 — nearly two weeks after her shirt was reportedly discovered on some barbed wire a mile from her abandoned car.
“This confirms that she’s most likely up that way rather than considering her being abducted,” Sheriff Travis Johnson told the Malheur Enterprise, who reported the news of the latest discovery.
According to The Arizona Republic, Brunelle was last seen wearing a dark-colored short-sleeved shirt, black leggings, and black knee-high boots with flat soles.
Anyone with information regarding Brunelle’s whereabouts should call Boise police at 208-377-6790 or Malheur County police at 541-473-5125.
