Search for Missing Austin Mother, Infant Daughter Intensifies

AUSTIN (WBAP/KLIF News) – The search for a missing Austin mother and her three-week old daughter has intensified.

The FBI and Texas Rangers have joined the Austin Police Department in the search for 33-year-old Heidi Broussard and baby Margot Carey.

Investigators with Austin police said the pair were last seen Thursday when Broussard dropped off her son at his elementary school near their home.

Police believe Broussard went home after that before dropping off the radar.

Authorities said they’re considering the possibility that Broussard left on her own or that the pair are victims of foul play.

Her fiance said when he got home, the door was open and Broussard’s car and other belongings were still there.

He has denied any involvement in their disappearance.

Broussard is 5’3″ tall, about 150 lbs. with long dark hair and highlights.

Carey is 7 lbs. 7 ounces and 22 inches long.

Anyone with information about the mother and daughter’s whereabouts is asked to contact police.
