Mystery Surrounds Shoreline Woman's 2-Hour Disappearance

SHORELINE, WA — One minute, she was standing on the porch of an Edmonds home. Two hours later, she woke up in a field near a gas station 2 miles away. She was barefoot and her body was covered in cuts and scrapes.

And no one knows what happened to her.

Edmonds police are asking for help from the public to solve the mystery. On July 14, a 28-year-old Shoreline woman was visiting her fiance's parents at a home along Bowdoin way in Edmonds. Her fiance saw her step out onto the porch around 12:20 a.m. When he went back a few minutes later, she was gone.

The woman woke up around 2 a.m. in a field near a gas station along Edmonds Way. A man and a woman who stopped for fuel saw the woman and called police.

"The only thing the missing woman remembers for certain is waking up in a 'grass field' with a man kneeling next to her and a woman standing nearby," Edmonds police wrote in a bulletin. "She also remembers running off into a wooded area prior to finding her way to the gas station."
