Deputies searching for missing PSU student

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — Washington County Sheriff’s deputies are trying to find a woman who did not return home after a Thursday night class at Portland State University.

The sheriff’s office says 25-year-old Emily Hooper of Aloha exchanged text messages with family after she left for class, but there has been no contact since then. Family members thought she went to her boyfriend’s house and did not report her missing until Friday night.

Hooper’s employer said she didn’t show up for work Friday.

Hooper is 5-foot-7 and about 135 pounds. She has short brown hair, a large lip ring and a sparkly nose ring. She also has tattoos of a tree branch on her forearm and a cat on her calf.

Hooper may be wearing a light-colored jacket, blue jeans and Doc Martens.
