PLANTATION, Fla. -- Police asked for the public's help to find a Plantation woman who was reported missing

An investigation into the disappearance revealed that there may have been foul play.

Melissa Britt Lewis, a recent divorcee, disappeared, leaving behind signs of foul play. There was no blood, but police said there was evidence of a struggle.

Investigators at the scene at Lewis' home at 7420 Plantation Road late Thursday night gathered evidence of what they described as a suspicious missing person's case.

The woman's best friend spoke with NBC 6 and said she hopes her words will help find Lewis.

"She's my dearest friend in the world," Debra Villegas said. "Come home. If you know anything, please call (police)."

Investigators said the blond-haired, brown-eyed woman was last seen on Wednesday night grocery shopping at the Publix at 6921 West Broward Blvd. just blocks away from her front door.

Lewis, who works as an attorney, never reported to work the next morning. That's when her co-workers called her family and her family called police.

"It's tough for everybody," Villegas said. "Her mom and her sister are very worried about her."

Detectives said they discovered Lewis' 2007 black Cadillac SRX abandoned within walking distance of her home.

Lewis was last seen wearing a brown and burgundy pinstripe suit with brown heels.

Anyone who has any information on her whereabouts should call Broward County Crime Stoppers at 954-493-TIPS.
