News Report:  
—————————————————————————–  
**MARION COUNTY, Fla.** – It’s been nearly three years since Sara Ebersole, 28, went missing. Now, an anonymous donor is offering a $35,000 reward for tips that lead to her whereabouts – an increase from $4,000 last year.   
  
The backstory:  
  
According to the [Marion County](https://www.fox35orlando.com/tag/us/fl/marion-county) Sheriff’s Office, Ebersole was last seen at a 24-hr convenience store in NW Marion County with Tyrone Mormon in the early hours of March 3, 2023.  
  
Authorities used time-stamp photos and information on Ebersole’s iCloud to establish her last known whereabouts.  Authorities say Mormon is the sole person of interest in this case. Investigators said Mormon lied about being with Ebersole that night and refused to give up his phone. He told investigators he had broken it and thrown it away, the sheriff’s office said.

Missing since 2023 under suspicious circumstances, Sara Ebersole was last seen in Reddick, Marion County, Florida
