Graf had spent time with friends at the Roxby Downs hotel until around 12:30 a.m. on Friday, December 12.

During their journey home, the pair collided with a kangaroo not far from the Andamooka township.

Following the collision, Trisha and her companion proceeded to Andamooka, where they visited a residence in the town’s north-western area.

Trisha Graf left the pub with a friend in her white 2012 Ford Territory with the licence plate S254BCX and drove to a home in north-western Andamooka.

Graf departed at 2 a.m. to travel a short distance home and was last witnessed driving on Dunstan Drive.

Her vehicle was located abandoned near Blue Dam shortly after midday.

“This is highly unusual and particularly out of character for her,” South Australia Police detective superintendent Darren Fielke said.

“The dam has been searched by police divers, polair has been involved in aerial searching and we’ve also utilised specialised drone equipment,” Fielke said.

“Police have spoken to a number of people and in Roxby Downs who have assisted piecing together the movements of Trisha.”

Detectives are now urging anyone who saw Graf in the hours before her disappearance on December 12 to contact them.
