Columbus Police investigators are asking the community for help in locating a missing woman described as high-risk and distraught.
Police identified the woman as Amber Evans, a light-skinned black female with dark curly hair. Evans, 28, is an Ohio State alumna and former Lantern reporter.
Her car was located at the Scioto Mile and she was last seen wearing a white parka and black leggings.
Police said she went missing following a domestic dispute, but her father, Brian Peters, has since posted on Facebook and said that there was no domestic violence involved.
“I want to make clear there was no domestic violence,” the post said. “Her boyfriend is a good man.”
Police have deployed a drone and infrared camera in the area, but are yet to find anything.
Anyone with information is asked to contact Columbus Police at 614-645-4280 or email Detective Jason Brammer at [email protected].
