Rescue crews continued the search for 58-year-old Lori Feltz Saturday.

The area surrounding Feltz’s home on Hick Hardy Road in Nicholas County has been searched since Feltz went missing last week.

Feltz suffers from medical issues stemming from a 1978 car crash. More than a dozen agencies have converged on the area using everything from horses to helicopters to help with the search since Monday.

“Even the ponds and any of the water ways have been searched. Culverts, everything within a couple mile radius,” Feltz’s brother-in-law Brett Hartman told LEX 18.

http://liarcatchers.com/missing_persons_investigations.html

Feltz’s family says the extensive search has helped them rule out that she is in the area. Instead, they believe she may have tried to flag down a ride to an adult daycare center in Georgetown that she attends. The center was closed Monday for the holiday.

“Instead of walking up the gravel drive to see her sister, she was thinking she missed her bus to go to the daycare center,’ said Hartman.

Having been without her medication for more than five days, Feltz’s family stresses this is a critical medical emergency. Anyone who may have seen her is asked to call 911.

A GoFundMe page has been setup to help raise money for a $10,000 reward for information that leads to Feltz.
