Californian uni student disappears after Lyft ride

An urgent search is on for a university student who disappeared from California on June 17, after getting into a ride-sharing car.

Mackenzie Lueck, 23, was scheduled to be flying from Los Angeles to Salt Lake City after attending a funeral.

She had then booked a Lyft ride-share to an address in North Salt Lake.

Lueck was last seen in the early hours of Monday morning, according to investigators.

Her family told KSTU they last heard from her at around 1am when she texted her parents to tell them her flight had landed.

Lueck hasn't been heard from since and police are now investigating her disappearance after her family reported her missing.

Authorities have reportedly been in contacted with Lyft and Lueck's apparent driver.

Lyft told Fox News in a statement on Sunday they are actively assisting law enforcement with their investigations.

They said Lueck's route from the airport didn't include any "irregularities and ended at the destination as originally entered by the rider".

The driver continued to drive for Lyft after Lueck's ride ended, the company said.

Salt Lake City Police Department has urged anyone with information to get in touch.
