Details of Disappearance:
On February 10, 1990, Evans was a bridesmaid at a wedding in Knappa, Oregon. After the reception at the High Climber Room lounge, she said she needed to quickly run to Warrenton (a nearby town) and would be back in an hour. She left around 9:30 pm without her purse (which was locked in the bride’s car). She never came back.

Someone later saw her at a gas station outside Astoria, Oregon (another nearby town). She was crying and on the phone. Her brown 1984 Ford Ranger pickup truck (it was borrowed, had lots of dents, a 7-Up sticker, and license plate PNB116) vanished with her. The police never found her or her truck, and the case is still a mystery.
