Police have launched a formal search for missing 46-year-old Wylie woman.

WILEY, Texas – The search continues for a missing Collin County woman who left her home and never returned.

Melonie Ballenger, 46, was last seen at her home in Wylie on November 3 and left behind her vehicle and phone.

Police are asking for the public’s help but have not released any potential circumstances surrounding her disappearance.

Meloni was last seen on Sunday at 10pm as she went to bed at her Wylie home on Parkwood Drive. Her husband, Daniel Ballenger, says when he woke up, she was gone.

“Obviously we were scared. We were worried about her,” he said. “I just want her back.”

Daniel called Wylie police around 6:30 a.m. Monday to report his wife missing. Police say she did not take her cell phone, car or important medications with her.

“We don’t know where she is, but she could be anywhere,” he said. “And we want everyone there to help.”

Wylie Police conducted an extensive search of the area using K-9 units and helicopters.

While police have not released the circumstances surrounding her disappearance, they say they are pursuing every avenue in the investigation.

Meanwhile, the Wiley community rallied around the family.

“There’s a lot of love in our family right now,” Daniel said. “We love Melony and want to bring her home.”

The family’s Gateway Community Church has printed and distributed thousands of missing persons flyers. They also held a prayer vigil on Tuesday evening.

The support means the world to Daniel and his two young daughters.

“It was incredibly difficult,” he said. “I have two little daughters who miss their mother and go through a month of emotions every day. It’s complicated”.

Daniel says the search has turned up nothing so far and police are identifying the next location to search.

Police asked family and friends not to conduct their own searches so K-9s could better track her scent.

Ballenger is described as 5 feet 7 inches tall, weighs about 135 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes.

Anyone with information is asked to contact Detective Pollard at 972-429-8014.
