Disappearance of Patricia Meehan

Patricia Bernadette Meehan (; November 1, 1951 – disappeared April 20, 1989) is an American woman who disappeared following a car accident on Montana Highway 200 near Circle, Montana. Investigators initially suspected Meehan had fled the scene out of fear or was suffering from amnesia as a result of head trauma. Over 5,000 alleged sightings of Meehan were reported in the months and years after her disappearance, several of which were confirmed by police, but none of which led to her discovery.

The case received substantial media attention for its bizarre circumstances, as well as the Meehan family's cross-country search for their daughter. Her disappearance was featured on the NBC series ''Unsolved Mysteries'' in the fall of 1989. The investigation remains active. Provided by Wikipedia
