The search continues for missing Beaverton woman Melissa Jubane, whose disappearance police are calling highly unusual.
Jubane, 32, a Resident Nurse at Providence St. Vincent Medical Center, was reported missing on Wednesday.
When she did not arrive for her shift at Providence that day, her concerned coworkers swiftly got in contact with law enforcement. Police issued a public call for help shortly after.
Official details as released by police have been sparse - but in an on-the-record conversation with KATU, Beaverton Police Officer Henderson called this a "highly unusual case" and said that they are using "all available resources" to try to find her.
Officers began a canvas of Jubane's apartment building Thursday night, and say they spoke to every single neighbor.
Tracking bloodhounds were used as well - but as of Friday morning, nothing had turned up.
Friday morning also saw a public search party gather in Beaverton to search for Jubane.
More than three dozen people, many who didn't even know Melissa, showed up to look for her.
"Melissa was, she was a really, I’m sorry She was a very helpful person. She loved helping people. She had a really big heart. No matter the situation, or what it was, she was always willing to help people. She loved her family, she loved her friends, she loved her dog. I just can’t describe her, she’s such a great friend, she’s always been a great friend," said a tearful Smantha Oregon, an organizer for the search.
