Missing Fairmont Woman in “Extreme Danger”

HUNTINGTON, W.Va. — A Marion County woman missing for nearly three weeks is believed to be in “extreme danger,” according to West Virginia State Police.

Kara Jeffrey, 21, was last seen in Huntington when she visited a friend on May 1.

She is described as an Asian female with an athletic build, standing 5’4”, and weighing 140 pounds.

State Police said Jeffrey does not own her own vehicle. She is believed to be in the company of an unidentified black man that police describe as a “current boyfriend.”

Investigators believe the danger to Jeffrey is two-fold. First, she suffers from an undisclosed medical condition that is going untreated. Second, police believe the unidentified man is connected with drug trafficking–possibly to trafficking occurring in the Fairmont area.

Her iPhone has been inactive since May 1.

Anyone with information about her whereabouts is asked to call Cpl. Isaac Harmon at (304) 290-4002 or Sgt. Sally Hatten at (304) 633-6261.
