The case regarding Jessica Heeringa, the Michigan mom who disappeared Friday night, has been reclassified as an abduction as her family anxiously awaits for her return, ABC News reported.

Heeringa, 25, was last seen on Friday at the Exxon gas station in North Shores, Mich. where she works. She made her last transaction at 11 p.m. and 15 minutes later police received a call from a customer stating there was no employee at the open gas station.

"She was going to get out in 15 minutes," Shelly Heeringa, Jessica's mother, told ABC News. "In 15 minutes that store would've been closed and she would've been on her way home."

Heeringa's purse and keys were left behind at the scene, according to her mother.

North Shores Police Chief Daniel Shaw said robbery does not appear to be a motive for Heeringa's disappearance as the store cash register was left untouched.

Investigators are relaying on witness accounts and tips to solve the case as the station is not outfitted with surveillance cameras.

According to Shaw, police are looking for a silver mini van, possibly a Chrysler Town and Country, that was seen in the area prior to Jessica's disappearance.

Shelly Heeringa said her daughter was seen "walk[ing] out of the store with this guy like there was no problem," but that there was a struggle when they got in the van.

"If somebody did take her, I wish they would just drop her some place so she could come home," she said of her daughter.
