Amy and her father stopped at the Holiday Inn gas station in Osseo, Minnesota at 4:30 p.m. on August 5, 1989. They were on their way home back to Maple Grove from the family farm.

Her father went inside the station to use the restroom. When he returned she was not in the car. She has never been heard from again.

Authorities initially believed Amy ran away. She had been having some problems that summer and ran away repeatedly, but always returned home.

She is no longer classified as a runaway, however. It's possible that had a seizure while her father was inside and could have became disoriented as a result.

Maple Grove police are investigating Amy's disappearance. It is classified as a non-family abduction.
