They said it was unusual for her to leave the dogs alone in the car. <P><BR> <P>Sarah Katherine Roberts, 16, recently dyed her hair jet black so she looks a little different than she did in this recent photo. (KGW Photo) <BR>Detectives are calling Roberts' vehicle a 'crime scene' but won't elaborate on details at this time. <P><BR>Police from multiple agencies, search dogs and even homicide detectives are scanning every section of the state park for any sign of Roberts. <P><BR>Authorities also closed off Terwilliger Boulevard between Boones Ferry Road and Highway 43 as they search that area. The park is closed as well. <P><BR> <P>(kgw.com map of road closure) <BR>Police say Roberts was wearing a white T-shirt and gray sweatshirt with blue shorts when she left home for her jog.
