University of Utah student disappears after reportedly taking Lyft ride

A University of Utah student who disappeared after ordering a Lyft in Utah was still missing Sunday — nearly a week after she was last seen.

Mackenzie Lueck, 23, was flying to Salt Lake City from Los Angeles after attending a funeral last weekend. The Salt Lake City Police Department said Lueck arrived at the airport on June 17 and ordered a Lyft ride-share to an address in North Salt Lake.

Investigators said she was last seen "in the early morning hours of Monday."

Her family told KSTU they last heard from her around 1 a.m. on June 17. Lueck's dad said his daughter texted her parents and told them her flight landed, but haven't heard from her since.

On Thursday, Lueck's family reported her missing.

I can only imagine what the family feels like right now. Prayers for MacKenzie and her family.

It didn’t sound to me like he was making it her fault. Just stating a fact.

You sure have a twisted way of looking at things EPU.

Not one person in a thousand would look at yarddog’s statement they way you did.

Take two aspirin and call us in the morning.

Figure out why she was going to an address in North Salt Lake, which is not where she lived, and you may solve the case.

We are taught from an early age....

Never get into a car of a stranger.

You have no idea who anyone is on the internet.

Lyft or Uber: Order a ride from a stranger on the internet.

I hate to say it, but this won’t end well. She was hiding something in her life, and probably met up with some “shady” person at that location where she was dropped off.

I used Uber once since it was a practical solution.

Great ride in a new Lincoln and a really cool driver.

The app gave all the details and they matched.

Sure, blame the victim. Sick.

Is Lyft checking their drivers? I read some of those may not be reliable, to say the least.

It usually is just fine.
Occasionally is even better. Uber in a Lamborghini
But as you can see it sometimes goes horribly wrong.

I’m guessing brutally raped and strangled, like the other one in South Carolina. Women just have NO chance at all when alone. Yet they stupidly jog and take taxis alone all the damn time. Not my daughter. I show her all of these stories and beat a dead horse deader.

The drivers, and the customers, are known to the company. The drivers have to send photos, driver's licenses, vehicle registrations, and sometimes get a physical to get a commercial driver's license. The companies communicate to the drivers through phone apps that know where the driver is at all times through GPS. This article states that the driver moved on from the place where she was dropped off.

This right here! I live on the edge of town and there are always (white) women jogging at 5am in the morning in the countryside on my way to work. I mean seriously, this isn't the 1950s anymore.

They do not have a commercial driver’s license.
