Kara L. Hyde, 23, of Hamilton, Ohio, was last seen on December 5, 2021, leaving a house on Grand Boulevard at about 1:30 p.m. Family reported her missing on December 18, 2021, after she failed to return following what had been a short trip to retrieve a birthday present for her mother. Kara was known to use social media frequently, but there has been no activity on her accounts and her phone goes straight to voicemail.

Her family searched locally and found a bag with some of Kara’s clothes in Crawford Woods, a park not far from her home. Kara is described as a white female, 5 feet 8 inches, about 120 pounds, with blonde hair, brown eyes, a mole above her upper lip and multiple tattoos on her arms and hands. The neighborhood where she was last seen is on Hamilton’s east side in an area sometimes called The Knob.

The Hamilton Police Department is investigating. If anyone knew Kara, saw her around December 5, 2021, or has information about her whereabouts, please come forward.
