Missing in the Midwest: The Abduction of Angela Hammond

It’s late on the night of April 4th, 1991 in Clinton, Missouri. 20-year-old Angela Hammond is standing outside the Food Barn, leaning against a payphone, talking to her fiancé. Somewhere in the middle of that conversation, Angela notices something...a truck. She mentions it casually at first, just something passing through the parking lot. But then, it comes back, and then again. Each time a little slower. Each time a little closer. Now it has her attention because it’s not just passing through anymore, it's circling her. Angela stays on the phone, describing what she’s seeing as it’s happening. There’s a brief interaction. A pause, and then — a scream....In this episode of Case Uncovered, I continue the Tuesday bonus series Missing in the Midwest, highlighting missing persons cases across Illinois and the Midwest to bring renewed awareness for families still searching for answers.If you have any information about the abduction & disappearance of Angela Hammond please contact:Clinton Police Department660-885-2679Support the Podcast If you enjoy Case Uncovered, please consider leaving a five-star rating and review.
