RICHMOND, Va. -- Police have asked for help finding a missing mother who may be in danger. Katasha Johnson, 26, was last seen June 3 when she dropped her daughter off at a day care center in north Richmond, a Richmond Police spokesman said Monday morning.
"She then failed to show up for work at the Dollar General store on Airport Drive in Henrico County," Richmond Police spokesman Gene Lepley said. "Detectives believe Johnson did not disappear of her own accord and she may be in danger."
Police described Johnson as a 5'1" black woman who weighs 120 pounds. She has black hair, brown eyes and a medium complexion. She has "MYA" tattooed on her right arm and was last seen wearing a black shirt and tan slacks, police said.
Johnson's car, a gold-colored, four-door 2001 Volvo, has been located. Anyone with information about Katasha Johnson is asked to call Major Crimes Detective William Brereton at (804) 317-3889 or Crime Stoppers at 780-1000.
