Police, friends looking for missing Utah university student

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Police and friends are investigating the disappearance of a University of Utah student who hasn't been heard from since she flew back to Salt Lake City last Monday after visiting family in El Segundo, California.

Police have issued a missing persons poster for MacKenzie Lueck but say they have no evidence she is in danger.

Lueck's parents reported her missing Thursday after not hearing from her after she texted them she had arrived in Salt Lake City at 1 a.m. June 17.

Salt Lake City Police Detective Greg Wilking said Monday that the 23-year-old took a Lyft ride from the airport to a Salt Lake City suburb where she does not live. Police are still searching the area.

Wilking says they have cleared the Lyft driver as a potential suspect.
