Washington County sheriff’s deputies are searching for a missing woman who may be in crisis.
The sheriff’s office said deputies responded to an apartment in Aloha on Friday night after receiving reports that Tara Callahan, 38, may be a danger to herself.
Deputies said they learned Callahan may have gone to Hagg Lake with the intention of harming herself. When they arrived at the lake, they found Callahan’s car at a boat ramp but couldn’t find her.
Over the weekend, search and rescue teams looked for Callahan in the woods and on the shoreline of the lake — and used drones in their search. The sheriff’s office marine patrol division also checked the water near the boat ramp where her car was found.
As of Tuesday, deputies have not been able to find Callahan. The search continues, and the case remains under investigation.
Deputies urge anyone who has information about Callahan’s location to call 503-629-0111.
