Police resume desperate search for missing woman last seen north of Menzies in the Goldfields on Friday

Police have resumed a desperate search for a 24-year-old woman who went missing north of Menzies in the Goldfields on Friday.

Crystal Johnston was last seen near the Jedda Mia Plains area about 40km north of Menzies at 6.10pm on Friday when she became separated from the car she was a passenger in after it stopped on Goldfields Highway.

Leonora police hold urgent welfare concerns for the woman who has no access to food, water or a mobile phone and may be in a remote location with limited services.

Ms Johnston is described as about 165cm tall, of medium build, with brown shoulder‑length hair and a green love heart tattoo on the right side of her face.

She was last seen wearing grey pants and a black shirt.

A co-ordinated multi-agency land search and rescue operation launched on Saturday with officers from Leonora police station supported by Laverton police.

Because of the remote location and challenging terrain, an Australian Maritime Safety Authority Challenger rescue jet was deployed from Perth to help with the search overnight.

The search resumed on Monday, with additional resources deployed from Kalgoorlie-Boulder, including a police drone and a police observer onboard an aircraft.

Anyone who sees Ms Johnston, or any motorist who may have given her a lift, are asked to call police immediately on 131 444.
