Indiana Woman, Missing Since August, Packed Up and Vanished

Almost a year ago, Andi Wagner, 25, came to the Evansville, Indiana, home she shared with her sister Alix, spent about 10 minutes packing, and then left.

She was later seen in Oakland City, about 40 minutes away, but she’s not been seen or heard from since.

“She didn’t tell me where she was going, what she was doing, or anything,” Alix Wagner told WFIE. And she hadn’t been around much in the weeks before she left, Alix said.

Andi’s mother, Elane Garcia, said her daughter was struggling with addiction at the time but was working hard to turn it around. But she wanted to leave Evansville, Garcia said, and said she might like to live with her mom in Texas.

“I should’ve came when she first asked me to,” Garcia said. “That is what’s tearing me apart.”

Garcia is now back in Evansville, comforting her other daughter and spearheading searches for the missing daughter.

“It’s been mentally and emotionally exhausting,” Garcia said. “Waking up, everyday, with no answers.”

And while she wants Andi back home, alive and well, she said she knows that may not be the outcome.

“I just want her home to lay her to rest,” Garcia said. “That’s it.”

Garcia said she has no plans to stop until Andi is found.

Andi is described as about 5 feet 4 inches tall and between 115 and 125 pounds. She has brown hair and eyes, a tattoo of a dreamcatcher on her left forearm and the name “Joshua Brown” on her right forearm.
