MOTHER and CAR missing from BELMONT, NORTH CAROLINA: Family and friends
continued searching Saturday for missing Belmont mother Elizabeth
"Liz" Stonger last seen Sunday,
10/14/2012, at the Belmont, NC Wal-Mart. A family friend told WBTV
people are searching areas in and around Belmont. They also spent the
day handing out flyers.
"A lot of people don't know about it
unless they just briefly see it on the news...it brings up people
thinking I might have saw her and at this point that's all we have is
people that might of and then go find out if it is true," Tara Morell
said. "It's been a while so we are just trying to do anything...somebody
could be traveling through..see it recognize her."
"I try not to break down but how do you not?" Liz's sister Amy Stonger said.
The family has contacted the CUE Center for Missing Persons to help
with the case. Volunteers with the CUE center recently found missing
teens Jake Ziegler and Ray Pierce. The two went missing in mid-October
on a trip to Myrtle Beach.
"Even just the few people that were
willing to take their time out of their lives [to search or pass out
flyers]..for somebody that didn't even know..people are very caring and
concerned..it means the world to me..because I can't do it on my own..I
can't," Stonger said.
Police say Stonger's cell phone pinged in a spot near the Blue Ridge Mountains.
Stonger may be driving a faded burgundy 1998 Chevy Lumina with NC
license plate ABC-6609. The car has a "Happy Bunny" sticker on the fuel
door. There is also a stick figure on the back windshield. It shows a
woman and child.
Stonger is 5'3" and 180 pounds. She has red hair and hazel eyes.
If you have any information about Stonger's whereabouts, please call the Belmont Police Department: 704.825.3792
