Police searching for missing pregnant Maryland teacher
September 7, 2017
Montgomery County police are asking for help to find a missing pregnant Maryland school teacher. Police say 31-year-old Laura Elizabeth Wallen, of Olney, was last heard from on Sunday, Sept. 3, after she contacted her family by what police call a 'troubling' text message. Since then, Wallens family members have not been able to reach her.
According to police, there is concern for Wallens emotional and physical welfare.
Wallen is described as a white female who is at least three months pregnant. She is 55 tall, weighs 200 pounds and has blonde hair and blue eyes. Investigators believe that she may be driving a black 2011 Ford Escape with Maryland tags M522473. Anyone with information about Wallen is asked to call police at 301-279-8000.
