Detectives say no new evidence has turned up in the case of a woman missing since 2006. A tip received by officers led them to Rundberg Lane Thursday morning, but after searching and digging in the area, they found nothing. Federal agents were also on hand to help with the search. Commander of Austin Police Investigations Mark Spangler spoke during the search. Specifically we are looking for a body, and that’s what the cadaver dogs have hit on, and even though those scent dogs are very highly trained, they don’t always produce results,” said Spangler. Roxanne Paltauf was last seen at a motel near Rundberg Lane and Interstate 35 eight years ago. She was 18 at the time. Her family says she and her boyfriend got into an argument and Paltauf walked away from the motel, never to be seen again. “There are more than 160 cold cases that are currently in our unit. We took this case just as seriously as we took all of those 167 cases,” said Spangler. Spangler says since this tip didn’t reveal any evidence, theyll move on to the next tip. Police have received around 1,000 tips.
