Sometime after that, Bushra’s phone turned off.
Habsa Abdi believes the two went to a convenience store to get snacks and that something happened to them along the way. She noted that one of the Impala’s windows didn’t go up.
Police said that the 911 call, which came from Carver County, recorded someone saying, “Help me!” Habsa Abdi said.
“I don’t think that they ran away because that makes no sense whatsoever,” Habsa Abdi said. “Knowing these girls at this hour … they were returning back to their jobs.”
Bushra left her wallet and identification at work, probably taking cash with her, her sister said.
Habsa Abdi said both women were working the night shift, which pays better than other times of day, to make money to buy their own cars.
No suspected has been detained as the case is under investigation by Chaska and Shakopee authorities.
