'It's really unsettling:' Surveillance footage sought in disappearance of Spanaway woman
SPANAWAY, Wash. - The Pierce County Sheriff's Department is looking for a missing 21-year-old woman, whose phone was found just a block from her family's home.
According to deputies, Rio Boyd was last seen on Oct. 17 in Spanaway. She left her home on Field Road to walk to a friend's home, but she never arrived. She left her keys and wallet behind, but had her brand-new cell phone.
Her father, Brian Boyd, said he called the phone when she didn't come home.
"A guy picks the phone up, answers the phone and he's like, ‘hello?’ I said, 'who's this?' He said he just found the phone on the ground right here, so I ran over and got it. I don't understand how she would have left her phone behind like that so that's what kind of scares everybody," said Brian Boyd.
"Disturbing. My daughter just gets a new phone and somebody else is answering it. That was strange," Brian Boyd.
