A 17-year-old girl has gone missing after failing to board a flight, sparking an investigation into her “suspicious” disappearance.
A carwas seized and a property declared a crime scene as the search continued for Pheobe Bishop in southern Queensland.
Bishop was last seen near Bundaberg airport about 8.30am on 15 May carrying luggage and wearing a green tank top and grey sweatpants.
However, the teenager did not check in for a booked flight and was not seen or heard from since.
A Gin Gin property near Bundaberg, where Bishop was living, was declared a crime scene along with a grey Hyundai ix35, police said on Wednesday.
The vehicle – believed to be the car taking her to the airport – was also seized by police.
“Investigations are ongoing and her disappearance is now being treated as suspicious,” a Queensland police statement said.
Police appealed for 15 May dash cam or CCTV footage of the vehicle – Queensland registration 414EW3 – near the airport or in the Gin Gin area.
“Anyone with information regarding Pheobe’s whereabouts is urged to contact police immediately,” police said.
Bishop was described as being about 180cm tall, with a pale complexion, long dyed red hair and hazel eyes.
