The family of missing teen Taylor Behl is preparing to offer a $10,000 reward as search efforts intensify.
The family of missing VCU student Taylor Behl is preparing to offer a $10,000 reward as search efforts intensify. We’ve learned Behl’s mother may officially announce the reward in a news conference as early as this morning.
Behl’s friends and family are also aiding in the investigation with a website that has Behl’s description, pictures, phone numbers and more.
“I think it makes it much more puzzling…Ohio, who does she know from Ohio, or you know if she’s with someone from Ohio, or if someone from Ohio has taken her..i don’t know,” says Pelasara.
Police confirm evidence was seized from Taylor’s car before turning it over to the FBI for forensic testing. Pelasara says no word yet on results but she’s counting on them to lead the way to her daughter.
“I think we’re that much closer to finding her and I think once the FBI finish their analysis, I’m praying to God it will bring new information that will take us right to her.”

CBS is Reporting on their web page:
Though he’s not a suspect in the case, the man was one of the last people to see Taylor the night she disappeared.
“They had been talking for a while online,” Cino says, “and it’s possible she considered him a confidant of sorts. She couldn’t have known too many people around here at that point.”
Taylor left her dorm room and vanished after taking only her cell phone, student ID, a little cash, and the keys to her car, police say. That car was spotted over the weekend by an off-duty officer.
“It’s a very big piece in the puzzle,” Richmond Police Chief Raymond Monroe says, “and, hopefully, once we have an opportunity to search the vehicle further, it can give us more information.”
The Times Dispatch also reports:
The dog could smell her, but he couldn’t find her.
The scent of Taylor Marie Behl, a missing Virginia Commonwealth University freshman, was one of two scents that were picked up by a Louisa County police dog brought in Saturday night to search her recovered car.
The other scent produced what police chief Rodney Monroe described as a “successful track,” which produced several leads that investigators were aggressively pursuing last night. Monroe would not say what the dog discovered or where its nose led investigators.
But the lead was a sign of further progress in the intensive criminal investigation into the disappearance of the 17-year-old Vienna girl, who has not been seen or heard from since leaving her dorm room two weeks ago on Sept. 5.

Following the discovery yesterday of Taylor Behl’s 1997 Ford Escort police seem to think that Taylor Behl may have possibly been abducted.
“The fact that [Behl is] 17 years old and there have been no traces of her, we don’t think someone of her age could pull something like this off so easily on her own,” Richmond police Chief Rodney D. Monroe said in a telephone interview. “That leads us to lean toward the idea that she might have met with foul play or was abducted.”
Until yesterday, police had said that although they were concerned for the teenager’s safety, they did not suspect foul play in Behl’s disappearance. Evidence suggested otherwise, they had said, and indicated that Behl had willingly driven from the campus, where she lived in a dorm.
Monroe said investigators put the sedan under surveillance for about 12 hours. When no one returned to claim it, he said, the vehicle was impounded and turned over to the FBI for processing. He said a team of officers canvassed the neighborhood Saturday evening, and several canines were dispatched to the area.
The dogs “hit on a few things,” Monroe said, although he declined to elaborate. Those leads were being followed yesterday, he said.
