Search Underway for Missing Emporia State Student

Law enforcement and other officials are working to locate an Emporia State student who didn’t return from fall break several days ago.

Residential Life staff members were notified last week by Emilee Irsik’s roommates that the 20-year-old Wichita student didn’t return from fall break, which was Oct. 18 and 19. At that point, staff initiated the university’s missing student protocol, which included contacting Emporia State Police and Safety.

Irsik’s family and friends have created a Facebook group to help locate her at http://on.fb.me/V0p7SN.

According to information posted on the page, Irsik flew on an American Airlines flight Oct. 19 from Wichita to Dallas and then on to London Heathrow Airport. She then flew on British Airways to Hamburg, Germany, arriving Oct. 20.

She was to return to Wichita on Oct. 26 but didn’t board her scheduled return flight, nor had she rebooked on a later flight. Her cellphone has been turned off since her departure from Dallas, and attempts to contact her via email, Facebook and other sites have failed.
