A witness may have seen a white male in the car shortly before abandonment—has this witness been fully interviewed and can they provide identifying details?
What occurred between May 19 when Logan was last seen at home and May 20 when his vehicle was found on I-5? How did he get to the highway?
Logan Drew Schiendelman, a 19-year-old Black male, was last known to be at his home in Tumwater, Washington on May 19, 2016.
