Oklahoma Highway Patrol has alerted the public about a woman who went missing under suspicious circumstances.

Harmoni Gail Jacks, 24, was last seen at about 3:30 a.m. Sunday morning. She was driving from Pocola to the Greenwood area, according to Hunter McKee, spokesperson for the OSBI.

Jacks was driving a red 2012 Nissan Altima with the Oklahoma license plate JYD 879. The front bumper is damaged or missing.

She is 5 feet and 1 inch tall, weighs 160 pounds, and has red hair and blue eyes.

Law enforcement says you should call 9-1-1 if you see her.

A large number of law enforcement vehicles were seen at a house in Arkoma Tuesday morning.

Their presence is "in relation to" the search for Jacks, according to Arkoma Police Chief Michael Ivy.

Vehicles with OSBI, Arkoma police, crime scene investigators and the LeFlore County Sheriff's Office were among those seen at the house.

Jacks's sisters, Felicia and Rhyanna, have searched multiple places she was known to visit like Natural Dam and Devil's Den, with no luck. They say Jacks left home to meet a friend around 4 a.m., but a few hours later they got a call from her son's father saying he couldn't get a hold of her.

OSBI is reportedly still searching for Jacks in both Oklahoma and Arkansas, but there are no suspects at this time.

Is the "suspicious circumstances" the time of night that she left home or is there something else "suspicious" about her departure?

It's possible her car went off the road and is in a ditch. Of course, there are other possible scenarios too.

I wonder if it's because she left her phone at home, something which is apparently out-of-character?

“For the first few days, we didn’t think much of it,” Rhyanna said.

Then her sisters said they found out she left her phone at home in Arkoma. This type of behavior is abnormal for Harmoni, her sisters said.

“She doesn’t disappear without communicating or letting us know within a couple of hours,” Felicia said. “She doesn’t go anywhere without her phone. She has our phone numbers memorized, so if she has access to a phone, I think she would’ve called by now. So that’s concerning.”

Yes, that is concerning. I'd think that if she left in the middle of the night to meet up with friends, she would for sure bring her phone.

But, if they have her phone, can they check for calls and text messages?

I'm assuming so, although if it is password protected it may take LE some time to gain access unless one of her family members knows her password. Hopefully if she was meeting up with someone LE will be able to get that info from her phone.

I'm curious if any of the people she was supposed to meet have shared their phones with LE.

Do they know who she was supposed to meet; did she ever make that meeting?

This is also concerning...

Our team has confirmed that a crime scene unit from the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation and a medical examiner are at the residence.

If there was no body at the house the ME may go there if a crime scene is particularly complicated and needs to be documented very well for an autopsy not yet performed, or if there are bodily fluids which need forensic evaluation. ME protocols may vary state by state and between jurisdictions, however.

She’s my aunts niece..Please pray that she’s found. She has a four year old baby waiting for his momma to come home…It’s concerning bc this isn’t like Harmoni. She always has her phone,but most importantly, she’d never not disappear and contact her family to let them know that she’s okay…Or her whereabouts…

Surveillance video reveals new clues in search for Harmoni Gail Jacks

The footage led police to revise where they say Jacks was last seen early Sunday morning.

www.4029tv.com

[...]

"We're trying to track her movements as she left. So far, we've gotten as far as Pocola," said Arkoma police Chief Michael Ivy. "We did have some indication that she potentially went to Greenwood. That has been disproven at this point."

Gas station surveillance video showed Jacks driving south on Hwy. 112 in Pocola at approximately 3:30 a.m. Sunday, according to Ivy. Police have not yet released the footage.

[...]

Ivy told 40/29 News that investigators have not yet found any evidence of foul play.

"I'm not ruling it out, and I'm not ruling it in. I take it (the investigation) where the evidence is," Ivy said. "We have to keep an open mind as investigators. So, I'm certainly not going to rule that out. We have some people of interest, but we're not ready to release those names."

Family holds on to hope as the search for Harmoni Jacks continues into fifth day

If you see her or her car, investigators are asking you to immediately call OSBI at 1-800-522-8017.

www.5newsonline.com

Like the rest of the Jacks family, BH, the father of Harmoni’s son, said he’s coping the best he can.

"I've been sick to my stomach for days. As the days go by it's getting harder and harder," said Hope, who told 5NEWS he saw Jacks suddenly leave the house at 3:30 a.m. the night of her disappearance and get into her car. He said he followed her in his truck, before losing sight of her.

At first, OSBI believed Jacks was going to Greenwood that night. However, surveillance footage shows her heading toward Pocola.

BH said he called the police while he was following her.

Harmoni Jacks’ family hopes she is found

The father of Jacks’ son called police and followed her car before she disappeared, saying he was worried she wasn’t safe.

BH was with Harmoni Jacks when she left her Arkoma home early Sunday morning. BH is the father of Jacks' son. He is currently the last known person to see Jacks, who has been missing ever since leaving home.

BH told 40/29 News that Jacks had been drinking and was in a depressed state due to the death of a close friend. He said Jacks left the house around 3:30 a.m. Sunday to see someone in Greenwood.

"She's in her bedroom texting. And I said, 'Who are you texting?' I asked her, and she said, 'This random dude from Greenwood," Hope said. "She runs out of this house and she gets in the car. I'm literally, she's backing out, I get my truck, I'm going down the road after her because I felt that she was unsafe."

[...]

"I'm just thinking she's not dealing with a friend's death, and she wants to deal with it on her own," said her parents, Becky and David Jacks. "I'm overly impressed with the amount of effort being put in looking for my daughter. There's a lot of people looking for Harmoni."
