RENO, Nev. (AP) - Authorities have suspended the search for a 19-year-old Reno woman who last was seen in the mountains southeast of Reno last week.

Washoe County Sheriff’s spokesman Bob Harmon says they’re continuing to investigate the disappearance of Madelyn Lingenfelter.

But he says a four-day search failed to develop any clues after her car was found in a parking lot Friday near the Sky Tavern ski area on Mount Rose.
