Greenville, Missouri - The search is on for Kelly Holcomb, a missing Poplar Bluff woman.
According to Wayne County Sheriff Dean Finch, authorities are searching for 36-year-old Kelly Holcomb who has not been seen since the evening of May 4th.
She was last seen walking south of the Greenville, Mo. area on Hwy. 67 near County Road 546.
Sheriff Finch said his department and the Missouri State Highway Patrol have been out searching for Holcomb throughout the day. He said he's not sure if foul play is suspected.
The pastor of Highway Missionary Baptist Church said a worker with the Missouri Department of Transportation turned in a phone to him that was found off the side of a road near the church on Thursday morning. He said someone called the phone on Friday morning asking for Kelly. The phone has since been turned in to the Wayne County Sheriff's Department.
Anyone that knows Kelly, knows it isn't like her to to just take off into the dark woods alone. What she was last wearing is unknown at this time. We know at one point she was riding in a white Yukon which she got out of and took off walking last night sometime. If anyone knows anything, or has seen her please PLEASE call the Greenville Police department, myself 314-326-1876 or her daughter Madison 573-714-9939.
