Fort Worth police still want the public's help finding a woman missing under "suspicious circumstances." Friends and family continued their search for Typhenie Johnson on Saturday. Fort Worth police will resume their search on Monday.
On Friday, Fort Worth police officers searched an area near Sandy Lane Park and near Trinity Boulevard and State Highway 360, while friends and family searched near the Texas Star Golf Course.
Johnson, 25, was last seen Monday afternoon at the Post Oak East Apartments in the 13000 block of Tristian Lane.
“I saw it on the news, I knew it was here. I’ve been here going on four decades in this area. I know this land very intimately, so that’s why I knew I needed to be over here to guide and help as best I could,” said Art Sahlstein.
“If you feel like you know something call,” said Tiona Vines, a friend of Typhenie Johnson.

The latest news from around North Texas.
“We definitely have to stay positive, so if anybody has anything that could come out and help we would greatly appreciate it. The family would love it,” explained Venice Ford.
The Sullivan family showed up with two horses to join the search.
NBC 5 spoke with 17-year-old Jacob Sullivan moments after returning.
“There’s not much down there except for too much of a rocky terrain to get this horse through,” Sullivan said.
Many of the searchers hold out hope they will find Typhenie alive.
“She’s coming home. I’m positive she is. She just doesn't know the area,” said Vines.
On Thursday afternoon, police released the arrest warrant affidavit for her ex-boyfriend, 32-year-old Christopher Steven Revill. He was arrested on suspicion of kidnapping.
"Anytime you have a missing person and the clock ticks every hour, every minute every second counts," said Fort Worth Police Officer Jimmy Pollozani. "We are definitely, desperately looking for her right now and trying to find her whereabouts and return her home safely to her family."
In the affidavit, police said Johnson and Revill dated for approximately eight months but that Johnson had ended the relationship approximately two months ago.
Johnson's twin brother, Asher, told police Typhenie was talking to Revill outside her apartment and told Revill it was over. After 20 minutes the conversation moved to the side of the apartment out of sight, according to Johnson's brother.
After 20 more minutes Revill came to the apartment to collect some things, and according to the affidavit when Asher Johnson asked Revill where Typhenie was, Revill said she left with someone who was going to fix her car.
Asher Johnson tried to call her but there was no answer. According to the affidavit, when Asher went outside he saw Revill's car was moved to a grassy dirt area nearby and the trunk was open. Asher said he went around the building to get a better view but Revill shut the trunk and drove away.
Asher told police when he walked over to where Revill's car was parked he saw items belonging to Typhenie.
"What the officers located on the scene were actually a cell phone, keys and a sock belonging possibly to Typhenie Johnson, and it was confirmed, through her brother, that it was her belongings," said Fort Worth Police Officer Jimmy Pollozani. "[Revill] is releasing limited information to detectives and he's not cooperating."
According to the affidavit (see below), Asher called and asked Revill to come back, and after 15 minutes, when he didn't, Asher called Fort Worth Police.
When officers arrived they talked to Revill on the phone and asked him to return to the apartments. According to the affidavit, after 25 minutes, when he did return he was sweating and said it was because it was warm, though police note it was 64 degrees and no one was sweating but Revill.
"Initial officers on scene and working the case noticed that the temperature was in the 60 degrees, that night and when he came back he was sweating and that was a red flag," said Pollozani.
Other officers went to Revill's home and according to the affidavit in the backyard they found a bra with the wire clasp stretched out as if pulled apart, a ladies shirt, a smart watch with a broken clasp and a man's tank top.
Revill's parents said those items were not there earlier and didn't belong to them, and according to the affidavit they had been at dinner and shopping during the time Typhenie Johnson disappeared.
"Based on the actually evidence that was out there in the crime scene and the apartment complex and the information at the parents house and that’s why we’re suspecting foul play and we need the public’s help to locate her and bring her back to her family," said Pollozani.
After he was read his rights, Revill told police he didn't harm Typhenie Johnson and denied parking in the grass, according to the affidavit.
Revill is being held at the Mansfield Jail on $50,000 bond.
Fort Worth police confirm Revill had child with a woman who disappeared in 2006. Taalibah Islam is still missing, but police told NBC 5's Cory Smith officers didn't think Revill was involved in her disappearance.
SEARCH CONTINUES FOR TYPHENIE JOHNSON
On Wednesday, Asher Johnson and several of Typhenie's friends passed out flyers with her picture on it.
"We're trying to make sure that she gets home," said Asher Johnson's coworker, Jewel DeCasta. "[Asher's] taking it OK, but at the same time he just needs help finding his sister."
Typhenie Johnson is about 5 feet 4 inches tall and 135 pounds with brown hair and eyes. She as last seen wearing a pink shirt and black and white pants.
Police asked anyone who saw the vehicle or Typhenie Johnson between 9 p.m. and midnight Monday to contact the Fort Worth Police Department.
"We don't know where she could be at, if she's OK, if she's breathing, if she's helpless, we just don't know," DeCasta said. "We just want to make sure our little sister is OK."
NBC 5's Courtney Gilmore, Cory Smith and Tyler Sieswarda contributed to this report.
