UNION, Mo. — Investigators believe a suburban St. Louis woman was abducted after her dog was found wandering around near her unlocked car at a park.

Deborah Marsch of Union has not been seen since she left her home early Friday morning.

Police say the 53-year-old's vehicle was found at 7:30 a.m. at Autumn Hill Park, a secluded area in Union she regularly visited.

Union Police Chief Norman Brune said evidence at the scene has led police to believe Marsch was abducted.

Anyone with information is asked to call the Union Police Department at 636-583-3700.
