Mt. Horeb police and the Dane County Sheriff's Department are attempting to locate a 25-year-old woman from Black Earth who has been missing since leaving her job on Monday for a trip to a bank.

Tammy L. Fitzsimons left a Mt. Horeb flower shop about noon and has not been seen since, according to police. She has not contacted any family or friends and did not return to pick up her 2-year-old daughter from day care at the end of the day, police said.

Fitzsimons is a white female, about 5-feet-5-inches tall and 150 pounds. She was last seen driving her red 2002 Saturn Vue with license plate 958-KWE.

Sheriff's spokeswoman Elise Schaffer said that foul play is not suspected, nor has it been ruled out.

Authorities are requesting public assistance in the case. Anyone with information is asked to call Mt. Horeb police at 1-608-437-5522.

So.... did she have money with her to make a deposit? Seems that would be a major clue to me.

UPDATE: Missing Black Earth woman found

Mount Horeb - A search ended happily Tuesday when authorities located a woman who left on her lunch break Monday from a local flower shop and never returned, then failed to pick up her daughter from a day care a couple hours later.

The Dane County Sheriff's Office said Tammy Fitzsimons, 25, was located and is safe.

She reportedly was found in Nebraska, but no details were immediately available.

Fitzsimons, who lives in nearby Black Earth, had left Olson's Flowers about noon Monday and didn't come back, police said. She had cashed a check at State Bank of Cross Plains in Mount Horeb before disappearing.

"We were concerned because she was never late or anything, but we thought that different things could happen," store owner Bill Olson said. "(We're) very worried. She's like a family member. She's a very kind young lady."

The woman's father, Bill Fitzsimons, said the worries increased because she didn't pick up her daughter at the sitter's.
