Missing woman found dead in western Arizona tried calling 911 for help. Her body was found one month later

LA PAZ COUNTY, Ariz. — A California woman found dead in western Arizona tried calling for help after she crashed her car in the desert, according to a California Highway Patrol 911 call.Nenigar told the operators she fell asleep while driving and crashed her car in the desert. She wasn't sure which road she was traveling on or which city she was in. “Everybody is probably worried sick about me," Nenigar said.

Two weeks after Amanda Nenigar went missing on Feb. 27, her car was found in a remote area of La Paz County, south of the town of Cibola. That's when La Paz County Sheriff William Ponce told 12News his department became involved, searching by ground and air for Nenigar. Even though Nenigar was in Arizona, Sheriff Ponce said poor cell service likely bounced her call to California Highway Patrol 911 operators. “Based on what she’s saying it seems she’s very unaware of where she’s at so that adds to the reason the call wasn’t transferred to our area," Ponce said.
