Police 'increasingly concerned' for welfare of North Carolina woman who vanished after distressed 911 call

Police in Greensboro, North Carolina said they are “increasingly concerned” for the “welfare” of Marissa Carmichael, a 25-year-old mother of five who vanished on Jan. 14.

Police in Greensboro, North Carolina told ABC News that they are “increasingly concerned” for the “welfare” of Marissa Carmichael, a 25-year-old mother of five who has been missing for more than three weeks.

Carmichael was last seen at 3:46 a.m. on Sunday, Jan. 14 at the Exxon gas station on 809 East Market St. in Greensboro, according to police, and made a distressed call to 911 just before she vanished.

A spokesperson for the Greensboro Police Department told ABC News on Friday that “investigators are continuing to actively work this case,” and searched an area on Wednesday with some abandoned properties where Carmichael could have taken shelter but “did not locate anyone in that area.”

Police said in a Facebook post earlier this week that that detectives working on the case have “conducted more than a dozen interviews, obtained surveillance footage from Ms. Carmichael's last known location, distributed flyers in the neighborhood adjacent to her last known location, and explored numerous leads that resulted in area searches. We also are using technology and other resources to help identify any additional leads.”
