Authorities say there is now enough evidence to suspect foul play in the disappearance of Veronica Butler and Jilian Kelley, two Kansas women who vanished over the weekend while traveling to pick up children, according to the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI).

“Based on the information obtained from the victim’s vehicle, our investigators believe there was evidence to indicate foul play. We are still searching for these victims and there are no arrests at this time,” the OSBI said in a statement. 

On Tuesday, OSBI public information manager Hunter McKee told Fox News Digital that the women are believed to be “in danger” as it has now been days since they were last seen or heard from.

“We believe they are in danger because we have not heard from them in, coming up on three days now,” McKee previously said. “Where their vehicle was last seen was a very rural area of the state as well. We have not found them yet. We are doing everything we can.”

Veronica Butler, 27, and Jilian Kelley, 39, were “traveling together to pick up children” on Saturday but they “never made it to the pick-up location,” according to the Texas County Sheriff’s Office.  

Instead, “their vehicle was found abandoned near Highway 95 and Road L, south of Elkhart, Kansas, in rural Texas County,” the OSBI said. 

The OBSI is describing the situation as a “suspicious disappearance case.” 

“Veronica has several tattoos, a Chinese symbol on her left forearm, a sunflower on her left shoulder,” says a missing persons advisory from the Texas County Sheriff’s Office. “Jilian has a butterfly tattoo on her left forearm.”
