Here is a news article: 7 Gallery: Jessica Heeringa, missing from Exxon gas station in Norton Shores 
  
 NORTON SHORES, MI – The owner of the Exxon Mobil gas station in Norton Shores where 25-year-old night clerk, Jessica Heeringa , was allegedly abducted on Friday has declined to speak of the incident “under the advisement of an attorney.” 
  
 The man, who declined to give his name, asked members of the media to leave his property and declined to give any information regarding the incident. When asked about the case, the owner replied: "No comment." 
  
  
  
 Police say the young mother was allegedly abducted from the station shortly before 11 p.m. on Friday when Heeringa was working alone. 
  
 The owner said he isn't speaking about the incident "under the advisement of an attorney." 
  
  
  
 A flier with details of Heeringa’s disappearance was posted on the front door of the building. 
  
 But the owner isn’t doing enough, according to Heeringa’s friends and family members who rallied outside the building early Monday morning, but were also asked to leave the property. 
  
 “He’s been difficult lately,” said Shelly Heeringa, Jessica’s mother. She said she’s upset her daughter was working alone at night, in a building that did not have surveillance video at the time of the incident. 
  
 The owner declined to say whether he now has surveillance equipment installed. 
  
 Shelly Heeringa said she feels the lack of security cameras inside and outside the building made it the “perfect place” for someone to abduct a young woman. 
  
 “I feel like it was someone watching the place. I think it’s the perfect place with no security and no security cameras,” she said. 
  
 A longtime friend of Jessica Heeringa's, Ann Averill, said she thinks the owner should do more to bring attention to the alleged abduction, help search for her and offer reward money. 
  
 “You think since he knew her he would at least put up more posters,” she said. 
  
 Police said Heeringa’s alleged abduction came to light after customers had called 911 after entering the store and finding no employees present. 
  
 Investigators are currently searching for a silver minivan, possibly a Chrysler Town & Country, that was last seen in the area prior to Heeringa’s disappearance. The evidence is based on a passerby observing the car parked near the gas station and driving away, police said. 
  
 The driver is described as a white male, approximately 30 to 40 years old, 6 feet tall, medium to heavy build with broad shoulders, light brown or sandy blond wavy hair parted in the middle and slightly longer on top. He was last seen wearing a bright red or orange sweatshirt, police said. 
  
 Heeringa is described as a white female, 5 feet 1 inch tall, about 110 pounds, with blond, shoulder-length hair and blue eyes. Heeringa is also known to wear wired rim glasses. She may be wearing a blue collared shirt with “Sternberg Exxon" on it, the police chief said. 
  
 Anyone who may have tips to contact Silent Observer at 231-72-CRIME (231-722-7463) or call 911. 
  
 A task force of investigators from the Norton Shores Police Department, Michigan State Police, Muskegon County Sheriff's Office, Muskegon Police Department and Muskegon County Prosecutor’s Office are all investigating the case. The FBI has also been contacted.

  ||||| NORTON SHORES, Mich. — A minivan and a white male are now being sought in the abduction case of a Norton Shores mother. 
  
 Jessica Heeringa, 25, went missing around 11:15 p.m. Friday, just as she was finishing her shift at the Exxon Mobil gas station on E. Sternberg Road. 
  
 Authorities are now looking for a silver minivan, possibly a Chrysler Town & Country, that could be involved. 
  
 “A passerby had observed this vehicle near the store, parked near the store, and observed the vehicle driving away,” Norton Shores Police Chief Dan Shaw said. 
  
 Police are also looking for a white male between 30 and 40 years old, medium to heavy build with broad shoulders and with light brown or sandy blonde hair. 
  
 Police say the station did not have security cameras at the time of the incident. “We all were well aware that there were no cameras, and we would be working alone,” Kristen Wilder, a co-worker, posted on Facebook Sunday. 
  
 Heeringa was working by herself. 
  
 FOX 17 went into the store on Sunday and saw that cameras had been installed since the abduction. 
  
 There’s a chance Heeringa knows her abductor. Investigators say no money was taken from the store’s cash register, and Heeringa’s possessions were untouched. 
  
 “As a store clerk, she has contact with a lot of people,” Shaw said. “Most of the people who have talked to us so far have indicated that she’s a very pleasant person – very sociable – so she engages in conversation with all of her customers. So, it’s very possible that she may have known this person.” 
  
 Wilder agreed on Facebook, citing that the store typically has the same customers regularly: “This was also NOT just some random person that took her,” she posted. “It was someone she knew.” 
  
 Heeringa is 5-foot-1 and 110 pounds. She has blonde hair, blue eyes, and occasionally wears wire-frame glasses. She could also be wearing a blue “Sternberg Exxon” polo shirt – the one she would have been wearing while at work that night. 
  
 If you have any information about events that led to Heeringa’s abduction or any leads in the case, contact Silent Observer at 231-722-CRIME or the Norton Shores Police Department at 231-733-2691. ||||| This undated photo released by police in Norton Shores, Mich., shows Jessica Heeringa, 25, who apparently was abducted Friday, April 26, 2013, from the Exxon Mobil gas station where she worked as a clerk... (Associated Press) 
  
 Several friends and acquaintances of a petite 25-year-old gas station clerk who went missing while working the night shift have been ruled out in her disappearance, which western Michigan investigators are treating as an abduction, the local police chief said Monday. 
  
 Police have frustratingly little evidence as they search for Jessica Heeringa, who disappeared Friday night shortly before the young mother was set to close an Exxon Mobil gas station in Norton Shores. The station didn't have a security camera and there were no signs of a struggle or robbery, though police have released a description of a vehicle and a man seen in the area. 
  
 Norton Shores Police Chief Daniel Shaw said relatives, friends and other people associated with Heeringa have been interviewed, and that investigators are "no longer really concerned with their activities from that night." 
  
 "We're moving on, trying to find other people," Shaw said. 
  
 Customers called police after finding the gas station open but no employees around. Investigators later found Herringa's purse and other personal belongings in the station, and the cash register untouched. Police described Herringa as 5-foot-1 and about 110 pounds. 
  
 "There's no sign of a struggle, no sign of anything inside the store being disturbed," Shaw said. "The cash drawer was sitting out and no money was missing. Her purse was in the store with 400-some dollars in it. It's just odd how that occurred." 
  
 Shaw said nearly two dozen law enforcement officials are following leads. The police chief described the city, home to about 24,000 people on the shores of Lake Michigan, as "quite safe" with a low rate of violent crime. 
  
 "The family believes that Jessica more than likely left to help (someone) in some way," Shaw said. "Their belief is that someone that she's either acquainted with or someone she was trying to help lured her out." 
  
 Police are searching for a gray minivan and its driver, who is described as a white man, age 30 to 40, about 6 feet tall, with light brown wavy hair. The description is from witnesses who saw the van parked near the station and driving away. 
  
 Heeringa's mother, Shelly Heeringa, told local media that she repeatedly told her daughter she worried about her working late by herself. 
  
 "She said, `Mom, don't worry. I can handle anybody,'" she said. |||||
A summary of this is?
– Jessica Heeringa was working the night shift at a Michigan gas station when she went missing just before the 11pm closing time Friday night, the AP reports. Investigators think the petite 25-year-old mother was abducted, and family members believe she was lured away from the Exxon Mobil in Norton Shores by an acquaintance or someone saying they needed help. A few odd details from the local police chief would seem to fit that theory: "There's no sign of a struggle, no sign of anything inside the store being disturbed. The cash drawer was sitting out and no money was missing. Her purse was in the store with 400-some dollars in it. It's just odd how that occurred." Friends say customers at the gas station are regular, and they also believe Heeringa knew or at least recognized her abductor, Fox 17 reports. Heeringa's disappearance was discovered after customers found the gas station open but empty and called police. There's scant evidence to work with, as the station had no security camera; right now, police are looking for a gray or silver minivan seen in the area and its driver, a white man aged 30 to 40, around six feet tall with wavy, light brown hair. Friends and family members are upset with the owner of the gas station, who they say is not doing enough to help, Michigan Live reports. Heeringa's fiance (the father of her 3-year-old son) and a few other acquaintances have already been cleared, WZZM reports.
Här är en nyhetsartikel: 7 Galleri: Jessica Heeringa, saknas från Exxon bensinstation i Norton Shores NORTON SHORES, MI – Ägaren av Exxon Mobil bensinstation i Norton Shores där 25-årig natt kontorist, Jessica Heeringa , påstods ha bortförts på fredagen har avböjt att tala om händelsen “under råd av en advokat.” Mannen, som vägrade att ge sitt namn, bad medlemmar av media att lämna sin egendom och vägrade att ge någon information om händelsen. På frågan om fallet svarade ägaren: "Ingen kommentar." Polisen säger att den unga mamman kidnappades från stationen strax före klockan elva på fredagen när Heringa arbetade ensam. Ägaren sa att han inte pratar om händelsen "under råd av en advokat." En flygare med detaljer om Heringas försvinnande postades på byggnadens ytterdörr. Men ägaren gör inte tillräckligt, enligt Heeringas vänner och familjemedlemmar som samlades utanför byggnaden tidigt på måndag morgon, men också ombads att lämna fastigheten. — Han har varit besvärlig på sista tiden, sade Shelly Heeringa, Jessicas mor. Hon sade att hon upprörd sin dotter arbetade ensam på natten, i en byggnad som inte hade övervakningsvideo vid tidpunkten för händelsen. Ägaren avböjde att säga om han nu har övervakningsutrustning installerad. Shelly Heeringa sa att hon känner bristen på övervakningskameror inne och utanför byggnaden gjorde det till den “perfekta platsen” för någon att kidnappa en ung kvinna. — Det känns som om det var någon som bevakade platsen. Jag tror att det är den perfekta platsen utan någon säkerhet och inga övervakningskameror,” sade hon. En mångårig vän till Jessica Heringas, Ann Averill, sade att hon tycker att ägaren borde göra mer för att uppmärksamma det påstådda bortförandet, hjälpa till att leta efter henne och erbjuda belöningspengar. — Du tror, att då han kände henne, skulle han åtminstone sätta upp fler affischer, sade hon. Polisen sade Heeringas påstådda bortförande kom i dagen efter att kunderna hade ringt 911 efter att ha kommit in i butiken och hitta inga anställda närvarande. Utredare söker för närvarande efter en silverfärgad minibuss, möjligen en Chrysler Town & Country, som senast sågs i området innan Heeringas försvinnande. Bevisen bygger på att en förbipasserande observerar bilen parkerad nära bensinstationen och kör iväg, sade polisen. Föraren beskrivs som en vit hane, cirka 30 till 40 år gammal, 6 fot lång, medel till tung byggning med breda axlar, ljusbrunt eller sandigt vågigt hår som delats i mitten och något längre på ovansidan. Han sågs senast i en röd eller orange tröja, sa polisen. Heeringa beskrivs som en vit hona, 5 fot 1 tum lång, cirka 110 pund, med blont, axellångt hår och blå ögon. Heeringa är också känd för att bära trådbundna fälgglasögon. Hon kanske bär en blå kraged skjorta med "Sternberg Exxon" på, sade polischefen. Den som kan ha tips om att kontakta Silent Observer på 231-72-CRIME (231-722-7463) eller ring 911. En arbetsgrupp bestående av utredare från polisen i Norton Shores, Michigan State Police, polisen i Muskegon County, polisen i Muskegon och åklagarmyndigheten i Muskegon County utreder alla fallet. FBI har också kontaktats. E-post: hpeters@mlive.com »« NORTON SHORES, Mich. — En minibuss och en vit man söks nu i bortförandefallet av en Norton Shores mor. Jessica Heeringa, 25, försvann runt 11:15 på fredag, precis som hon avslutade sitt skift på Exxon Mobil bensinstation på E. Sternberg Road. Myndigheterna letar nu efter en silverfärgad minibuss, möjligen en Chrysler Town & Country, som kan vara inblandad. “En förbipasserande hade observerat detta fordon nära butiken, parkerade nära butiken, och observerade fordonet kör iväg,” Norton Shores polischef Dan Shaw sade. Polisen letar också efter en vit hane mellan 30 och 40 år, medelstor till tung byggning med breda axlar och med ljusbrunt eller sandigt blont hår. Polisen säger att stationen inte hade övervakningskameror vid tidpunkten för incidenten. “Vi var alla väl medvetna om att det inte fanns några kameror, och vi skulle arbeta ensam,” Kristen Wilder, en medarbetare, postade på Facebook söndag. Heeringa arbetade ensam. FOX 17 gick in i butiken på söndagen och såg att kameror hade installerats sedan bortförandet. Det finns en chans att Heringa känner till hennes kidnappare. Utredare säger att inga pengar togs från butikens kassa, och Heeringas ägodelar var orörda. — Som butiksbiträde har hon kontakt med en massa människor, sade Shaw. – De flesta som har pratat med oss hittills har antytt att hon är en mycket trevlig person – mycket sällskaplig – så hon för ett samtal med alla sina kunder. Så, det är mycket möjligt att hon kanske har känt denna person. " Wilder överens om Facebook, med hänvisning till att butiken vanligtvis har samma kunder regelbundet: "Detta var också inte bara någon slumpmässig person som tog henne," Hon postade. “Det var någon hon kände.” Heeringa är 5 fot-1 och 110 pund. Hon har blont hår, blå ögon, och bär då och då trådramsglasögon. Hon kan också ha på sig en blå ”Sternberg Exxon” polotröja – den hon skulle ha haft på sig på jobbet den kvällen.

(Associated Press) Flera vänner och bekanta till en liten 25-årig bensinstation kontorist som försvann medan hon arbetade nattskiftet har uteslutits i hennes försvinnande, som västra Michigan utredare behandlar som ett bortförande, den lokala polischefen sade måndag. Polisen har frustrerande lite bevis när de söker efter Jessica Heeringa, som försvann fredag kväll strax innan den unga mamman var inställd på att stänga en Exxon Mobil bensinstation i Norton Shores. Stationen hade ingen övervakningskamera och det fanns inga tecken på en kamp eller rån, trots att polisen har släppt en beskrivning av ett fordon och en man som syns i området. Norton Shores polischef Daniel Shaw sade att släktingar, vänner och andra personer som är knutna till Heringa har intervjuats, och att utredare "inte längre riktigt bryr sig om sina aktiviteter från den natten." "Vi går vidare, försöker hitta andra människor," Shaw sade. Kunderna ringde polisen efter att ha hittat bensinstationen öppen men inga anställda i närheten. Utredare hittade senare Herringas handväska och andra personliga tillhörigheter på stationen, och kassaapparaten orörd. Polisen beskrev Herringa som 1,75 meter och cirka 11,5 kilo. "Det finns inga tecken på en kamp, inga tecken på att något inne i butiken störs", sade Shaw. "Lådan satt ute och inga pengar saknades. Hennes väska var i affären med 400 dollar i. Det är bara konstigt hur det gick till." Shaw sa att nästan två dussin poliser följer ledtrådar. Polischefen beskrev staden, hem för cirka 24 000 personer vid Michigansjöns stränder, som "ganska säker" med en låg våldsbrottsfrekvens. "Familjen tror att Jessica mer än sannolikt lämnade för att hjälpa (någon) på något sätt", sade Shaw. "Deras tro är att någon som hon antingen är bekant med eller någon hon försökte hjälpa lockade ut henne." Polisen söker efter en grå minibuss och dess förare, som beskrivs som en vit man, mellan 30 och 40 år, omkring 6 fot lång, med ljusbrunt vågigt hår. Beskrivningen är från vittnen som såg skåpbilen parkerad nära stationen och kör iväg. Heringas mor, Shelly Heeringa, berättade för lokala medier att hon upprepade gånger berättade för sin dotter att hon var orolig för att hon skulle jobba sent själv. "Hon sa: 'Mamma, oroa dig inte. Jag kan hantera vem som helst, sa hon. En sammanfattning av detta är?

Det finns få bevis att arbeta med, eftersom stationen inte hade någon säkerhetskamera; just nu letar polisen efter en grå eller silverfärgad minibuss som syns i området och dess chaufför, en vit man i åldern 30 till 40, runt sex fot lång med vågigt, ljusbrunt hår. Vänner och familjemedlemmar är upprörda över ägaren av bensinstationen, som de säger inte gör tillräckligt för att hjälpa, Michigan Live rapporterar.
