State police issued a missing person's alert for a pregnant Traverse City woman who disappeared from a local department store parking lot.
Dawnette Marie Harrell, also known as Dawnette Hart, was last seen by a friend at 3 a.m. on April 1 near Kmart at Cherryland Center on the corner of Garfield Avenue and South Airport Road.
The friend dropped Harrell, 29, off in the Kmart parking lot and drove away as she walked to her car, said Brett Nichols, a trooper with the Michigan State Police Traverse City post.
Her brother-in-law found Harrell's red Toyota Tercel locked in the parking lot about five days later, said her mother, Donna Hart.
"Dawn had never gone more than three days without seeing me or calling me or her sister," Hart said. "We just have to know if something terrible has happend to her."
Hart said that Harrell was "extremely happy" she was pregnant and had several medical appointments scheduled in town.
Harrell moved back in with Hart after separating from her husband the day she disappeared, Hart said.
"I do not believe she would have made all these appointments and then just disappear," Hart said. "Everything was fine. She was so happy."
Harrell was 10 weeks pregnant in April and has a due date in November.
