Kyra Lindsy Boehning was reportedly last seen between 11:0011-15 pm on October 8, 2018 at the intersection of SR 18 and SR 75, in Flora. Indiana. (Just outside of Delphi)

Her boyfriend had reported that KB (who also goes by the name Kyra Thurston) had taken his vehicle (dodge caravan) from his residence. This was found abandoned on railroad tracks at 500East 0NorthSouth on Wednesday 10/10/2018. Left behind in the vehicle: personal ID and personal belongings.

A Silver Alert has been issued.
Boehning is described as being 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 130 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Police say she was last seen wearing a gray hooded sweatshirt with “Fat Kid Inc.” printed in black lettering on the back. She was also reportedly wearing denim capris and flat bottom sandals.

Police say Boehning has tattoos on the left side of her neck and the name “Mark” tattooed on the right side of her neck. She also has the name “Greene” tattooed across her stomach.

Police do not believe Boehning has any immediate medical issues, but she is believed to be in possession of a 9mm handgun.

Flora woman reported missing

Twenty-five-year-old Kyra L. Boehning drove away from her Flora home in her boyfriend's minivan Monday night and into a mystery.

Carroll County Sheriff Tobe Leazenby said the boyfriend reported her gone Tuesday night, and showed police home surveillance footage of Boehning leaving in his van by herself.

The next time anyone saw that blue 2006 Dodge minivan, it was Wednesday morning at Clinton County Roads 0 and 500 East, Leazenby said. It was parked there with Boehning's personal belongings — her ID and person items — locked inside the van, according to a news release from Flora police.

Police searched the area near the minivan, but did not find any indication of where Boehning might be.

Boehning's boyfriend didn't believe he was the proper person to file a missing person report since they are boyfriend/girlfriend, Leazenby said, but her parents, who are from Illinois, filed that report Wednesday night.

Same here!

Two instant thoughts I had on seeing this in the local news today: 1) boyfriend 2) Libby and Abby.

I hope that KB shows up alive and well. Fail that, that this is quickly resolved. So sad.

I bet Carroll County LE got a bad feeling when the vehicle was found on an abandoned railway.

Personal items? How about her phone?

For a Silver Alert to have been issued in the State of Indiana at her age the person must be a Missing Endangered Adult, Missing Endangered Child, High Risk Missing Person or have a mental impairment validated through a credible medical authority (Physician, Physician’s Assistant, or Nurse Practitioner):

Kyra's father said she was bipolar with the resultant mood swings (link to his statement follows). I understand, my former husband was bipolar (and alcoholic). He always threatened he was going kill me or himself. I'm still here. It's a brutal disease.

The fact that she stole a vehicle quite late at night, left all her possessions in it but has a handgun leads me to believe she intended self-harm. I do hope they find her.

Agreed, Grace. My head went to self-harm as soon as I read she was in possession of a gun, seen leaving alone in his car, and vehicle found abandoned. Even before mental health issues added to this. Praying they find her safe!

Totally agree with you Grace. Thanks for sharing the link to comments from her dad. So sad. (BTW- I’m so glad you are still here. I cannot imagine carrying that burden.)

And I walk back my comment about the boyfriend.

I sure hope she is safe somewhere.

I worked with Kyra's mom, Amy, and her aunt, Nancy, many years ago.
Sadly, Nancy posted on Facebook about 3 hours ago that Kyra's body has been found.

I am so sorry, Toni K. My sincere condolences to Amy, Nancy and the rest of Kyra’s loved ones. Mental illness is an awful, awful thing.

Rest In Peace, Kyra

Prayers for her loved ones.

(Edit: And gratitude to LE and the community working this case.)
