The search for a missing Lawton woman was suspended Saturday evening following a two-day search that included a helicopter, drones, search dogs and dozens of people, authorities say.

Severe weather caused the search for Emily Reid, 24, to be suspended, said Kenny Stradling, Comanche County Sheriff.

An Endangered Missing Advisory (EMA) was activated for Reed on Thursday, Aug. 10, by the Oklahoma Highway Patrol on behalf of the Lawton Police Department.

Authorities say Reid was last seen in Comanche County. After two days of searching, Reid's burnt orange Chevy Colorado was found abandoned in Elgin in a field near Trail Road and NE Lake.

Her clothes were also recovered nearby, Sheriff Stradling said.

Posts from Reid's family and friends online say she poses a danger to herself and others.

Authorities said her phone reportedly last pinged in the same area her vehicle was recovered on Saturday.

As of 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, there's no update on Reid's whereabouts.

If you have any information about Reed, contact the authorities.
