Crystal Lynn Russ, 25, was last seen in Houston on April 13, 2000. She was working a night shift at an Exxon station near Crosstimbers Street and Interstate 45, where she was training to be the manager, and she also drove a taxi. About 2:15 a.m. she asked to leave early because she felt ill from an ear infection; the manager approved and she departed but never returned or made contact.

A week later her taxi was found abandoned with most of her belongings inside. Investigators noted her ID holder had been cut in half and several Beanie Babies she planned to resell were missing. At the time she was 5 feet 4 inches, 135 pounds, with red hair and green eyes, and may have been using the surnames Herrera or Carson.

Her disappearance is classified as endangered and remains unsolved. Does anyone who lived or worked near Crosstimbers and I-45 in April 2000 remember seeing her or her taxi that night?
