Clues sought on woman's disappearance

BONNERS FERRY — Troy Police have issued a missing and endangered person advisory for a 36-year-old Troy woman who has been missing since last Monday.

Police are searching for Sandra Laffoon, 36, of Troy, a victim of a violent crime involving an alleged assault by Dan (D.J.) Savage Jr., the advisory states. Laffoon is described as standing 5-foot, 7-inches tall, weighing about 140 pounds. She was reported missing Sept. 2.

She may be driving a blue Dodge Caravan with Montana license plate 56 21592.

After the alleged assault, Laffoon left Savage , saying that she was going to a grocery store. However, she never returned, which prompted the advisory.

Police believe Laffoon may now be with Savage.

Savage, also 36, is 6-feet, 1-inch tall, and weighs 180 pounds.

Police caution that Savage is now considered a fugitive, and people are urged if they see them to not approach or have any contact with the couple.

If located, police urge people to call 911 or call local law enforcement.

“We do believe they are out of the area,” Bowe said.
