OVERLAND PARK, Kan. — Police were working leads Monday looking for a break that would lead to information regarding the fate of a Kansas teen missing since Saturday.
Meanwhile, the family of 18-year-old Kelsey Smith offered a $5,000 reward for information about her whereabouts.
Police have gotten tips from people who might have seen Smith, who disappeared Saturday night near a shopping mall, said Overland Park Police Capt. Tom Fredrickson. Other tips about a car like hers or a suspicious incident have also come in, but a lot of the leads haven't panned out, he said.
"Please call the Overland Park police or the TIPS Hotline and let us know where she is at," Greg Smith, Kelsey's father, told KMBC-TV. "We just want our baby back, that's all."
Officials are trying to establish Smith's whereabouts between 7:10 p.m., when she left a Target store, and 9:15 p.m., when her vehicle was found parked outside the Macy's at Oak Park Mall.

My prayers are with Kelsey, her family and friends, and those searching for her.

This does not sound good. How very very disturbing, that they have tape of her abduction.
I feel for her family and friends.

Klaasend has posted that Red told her Tim Miller and TES will be heading to Kansas to help search.
Kelsey's father was on television saying that most likely someone saw Kelsey being abducted and may not have realized it was an abduction, not just a quarrel or something. They're asking people to call police if they remember seeing anything. This happened in a busy parking lot during daylight!
There is a person of interest. They're showing the videotape and Fuhrman is saying that as he leaves the store, he is looking around, scanning the area, not focused on heading to his car as most customers would do.

Family Website....with pictures of "person of interest" and the truck he is believed to be driving. If this person lives in the area, the pictures are clear enough to be identified....I hope someone turns him in soon....

This sure doesn't look good. I think it would be better for a woman to scream at the top of her lungs and run as hard as she could even if a person was threatening them with a weapon. Being forced into a vehicle more often than not means someone is going to go through hell and worse.

Morning Monkeys. They just had her parents on GMA (Good Morning America) this morning.
http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/story?id=3249158&GMA=true
They were also offering helpful tips to women walking to their cars alone.
They should keep their keys out. NOT be on the cell phone or listening to IPods, etc. I think in this day and age we are living in that is some good common sense advice that should be passed along to all. When we are unaware that puts us in a terrible (often tragic) position.
I hope this young woman is found SAFE SOON.

My Thoughts are :
Kelsey's father was a Cop, this kid in the white shirt looks like he is looking for her as a target.
Kelsey being abducted may not have been random, but revenge.
Her Dad my have arrested a friend of his.
This was planed, JMO
Hello Ms.DarthVada, it's nice to be back

[/b]Another tip I have always heard is to have your car keys in your hands but if someone is trying to force you into your own car is to throw the car keys as far away as possible. Along with screaming at the top of your lungs

Sleeks & Blonde
You both are so right about what you say. She could have very well been a revenge target. I also am glad to see the reminders of safety for women walking to their cars. WE all need to be reminded often.
I wasn't a bit surprised to read in an msnbc article that her sister said that Kelsey would fight until her body wouldn't allow it. I surely hope they can locate her soon and am comforted to know that Tim Miller & team are on their way

There's a press conference on the news now. A police officer is talking about what they know and asking for help. He says they're getting lots of help from other LE in the area. He says they have 500 leads but they're asking for people to call if they think they have any info. Lots of volunteers looking around the lake where there were two cell phone "pings" Saturday night.
I said yesterday that I had a feeling it was someone she knew. I still believe that. Family and friends may believe she had no enemies but there are a lot of mentally disturbed people out there who don't show signs of the hurtful, dishonest, or criminal behavior they're capable of.

I think you're right LilPuma. The guy on the tape looks like he could be in her circle of aquaintences, just going by his age and the way he looks. If I didn't know that he was connected to a young woman's disappearance, I'd see nothing alarming about him. He looks like most college- age kids I see in Target all the time.
I'm just really afraid that this won't have a positive outcome.

Well fellow monkeys - now I don't know what to think according to the link below - Greg Smith said none of her family recognize this person.
http://www.cnn.com/2007/US/06/06/missing.teen.ap/index.html
I am starting to wish some of these evil people would go "missing." Leave the rest of the world alone.

There's supposed to be a press conference at 5:00 EDT, which is a few minutes away.
I was so hoping that she was taken by nut case who would keep her alive for awhile and she would be found. I've got FOX on now to see if they've confirmed that it's Kelsey.
My prayers are with her family and friends.
