On the night she vanished, Wells drove to what was Graham Central Station (now Electric Cowboy) on McCann Road in Longview in her black 2000 Pontiac Grand Prix coupe with Texas plates. She had arrived with her fuel tank almost at empty and was asking people for gas money. She was not intoxicated. There is surveillance video indicating she left the club alone.
Wells' car was found abandoned the next day by a Texas Department of Public Safety trooper along Interstate 20 about 300 yards west of FM 2087 with her purse still inside the vehicle. Her car had front passenger damage above the front wheel. Longview police didn't identify the car as belonging to Wells until five days later. There were no signs of a struggle. Wells' cellphone was found later at another location.
