Three years later, the search continues for missing woman, Alexis Scott | CIProud.com

The search for a missing Peoria woman continued Sunday with volunteers taking a different approach.

Despite the rain on Sunday, volunteers with the Alexis Scott Campaign searched the fields near the former Detweiler Golf Course for any signs of the missing woman.

The group of around ten searched for clues in the disappearance of Scott who was just 20 years old when she went missing back in 2017. On Sept 22, 2017 Scott entered a home in Peoria and her family says she hasn’t been seen or heard from since.

Sunday, the group received help from law enforcement who kicked the search up a notch and explored the waters of the Illinois River. Director of the Fon Du Lac Park District Police Department Mike Johnson said in these situations he feels for the family.
