Virginia Beach, Va. — A tense missing-person search ended with relief today: 29-year-old Taylor Conard has been located safely and is receiving medical care at a local hospital, surrounded by loved ones.
According to a statement credited to Caeli Boyle, Conard was found in stable condition, and her fiancé Michael Olberg — along with the entire family — expressed deep gratitude to everyone who offered support, shared leads, and aided in efforts to find her. They thanked the community for its compassion and assistance.
Conard had disappeared early Monday morning from the Parkside Green neighborhood in the Princess Anne section of Virginia Beach. Police had sent out an urgent alert after she vanished from her home around 2:00 a.m. and failed to contact anyone.
At the time she went missing, Conard was considered an endangered person. She is described as 5-foot-4, 160 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes. Reports earlier suggested she might have been wearing a blue winter jacket with jeans, leggings, or sweatpants — but no confirmed sighting or definitive trail had emerged.
In his initial plea, Michael Olberg explained that Taylor had given birth just a month ago, and the family feared she may have been grappling with postpartum depression or psychosis. Her vehicle had been repossessed the night before, which he believed could have triggered a distressing emotional crisis. He had urged anyone with information to call the Virginia Beach Police Department.
The search had drawn swift and widespread concern — friends, neighbours and online communities joined the plea, sharing her photos and urging vigilance. Some even offered to assist in door-to-door checks, hoping for any sign of Taylor.
Now, with Taylor back and safe, the ordeal brings a moment of collective relief. The family’s heartfelt thank-you stands as a powerful reminder of the impact of community support — and the difference it can make when people mobilize to help each other.
