VA. POLICE SEARCH FOR MISSING MD. WOMAN

The car and a credit card of a missing Maryland woman were found in the Culpeper area, and state police were looking for her Sunday.

Alicia S. Reynolds, 25, of Baltimore left her home about 7:30 a.m. Saturday to meet her mother in Charlottesville, state police said. Her mother called her son-in-law in Baltimore about 11 a.m. to say Reynolds had not arrived, and he called the Baltimore Police Department and the Virginia State Police.

A Culpeper resident contacted the Culpeper Police Department on Saturday afternoon after finding Reynolds' credit card.

A state police trooper found Reynolds' 1993 white Mercury Tracer about 6 p.m. Saturday on U.S. 29 two miles south of Culpeper. State police said it had been abandoned between 9 and 10 a.m.

State police spokesman Charlie Vaughan said two people saw a man and a small black pickup stopped Saturday by Reynolds' car, which had its hood up.

``We tried the car last night, and it started right up,'' Vaughn said. ``That doesn't mean it hadn't overheated,'' or that something else might have gone wrong, he said.

Reynolds is white with blue eyes and shoulder-length brown hair. She is 5 feet 2 inches tall and weighs 110 pounds.
