A 29-year-old woman from Altoona has been missing for more than a week. Her family still doesn't know where she went or what may have happened to her, but they're not giving up hope.
It's been 9 days since Catherine Copley was last seen around 4th Ave. and Crawford Ave. in Altoona.
Amy Boob, Catherine Copley's Sister, said, "We've been out searching every single night searching for her, any clues that could lead to where she could be, and we still find nothing."
As their search continues, they've received help from friends and family. But the family says a woman from an outside organization -- Missing in America -- is taking the lead in her own search.
"When we as family should be in searching for my daughter," said Catherine Boob, Copley's mom.
Altoona Police has classified Copley as a missing endangered person and they're asking for information from the public.
Lt. Jeff Pratt from Altoona Police Department said, "Somebody out there knows what happened to Mrs. Copley, or may know of her whereabouts currently, we're asking this person to step forward and do the right thing for her children and the family."
"Because we go day by day not knowing anything and not knowing where she could be or if she's out there and hurt," said Catherine Boob.
Copley's family says they've hung up hundreds of fliers around the city, only to see that they've been torn down.
"It's really upsetting going by the telephone poles that we put fliers up and they're taken down. It's very upsetting seeing that," Amy Boob said.
They say they will continue to hang fliers and search for Catherine until they figure out what happened to her -- one way or another.
"I would have part of my heart back again. Right now I have a hole in my heart that there is something missing and I can't fill it with anything else but my daughter," said Catherine Boob.

***********UPDATE*****
Sadly, Catherine Copley has unfortunately been found deceased and her death has been ruled a homicide. Based on news articles, it is still our advice for anyone with information to contact the Altoona, Pennsylvania Police Department.
***********UPDATE******
Thoughts? While I hope Catherine is found, unfortunately the circumstances of her disappearance are very suspicious.
