AUSTIN (KXAN) — Austin police are still looking for a missing mom and her infant daughter, who were last seen Thursday at a south Austin elementary school.
Heidi Broussard and her 3-week-old daughter Margo Carey were last seen Thursday at around 7:30 a.m. when Broussard dropped off another child at Cowan Elementary School. Police believe they returned to their home near West William Cannon Drive and South First Street afterward, but they haven’t been seen since.
Austin police provided this photo of Broussard from Thursday morning at Cowan Elementary. The clothing pictured is what she is believed to have been wearing when she was last seen, according to police.
Broussard is 33 years old, 5-foot-3, 150 pounds with long, dark hair with highlights.
Broussard’s mother told KXAN she’s driving from Louisiana to help search for her daughter and granddaughter.
Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Heidi Broussard or Margo Carey should call the Austin Police Department.
Friends started search online asking for public’s help
Broussard’s friends have been looking for her and sharing her photo since last night.
In addition to the details provided by police, her friends say online that when Broussard’s husband arrived home, her vehicle, purse and baby bag were all there but the door was wide open and she and the baby were missing. Police have not confirmed that.
Her friends say they have contacted all of her other friends but no one has seen or heard from her.
In a statement on Monday, APD said:
“The disappearance of Heidi Broussard and Margo Carey is still a very active and ongoing investigation. We don’t have any new information to provide at this time… We continue to ask for the public’s assistance in locating Heidi and Margo.
