BACKGROUND INFO: Officials searching for Spring woman who disappeared 'under suspicious circumstances'

According to Texas EquuSearch, the 29-year-old had last been seen in the Spring area on April 25, 2021.

Taylor's father Stephen Pomaski told FOX 26 back in July that she had been dating former NFL player Kevin Ware, Jr. for almost a year. Ware is a person of interest in the case.

He was out on bond on an unrelated charge when she disappeared.

In June 2021, U.S. Marshals arrested Ware, who was wanted for bond violations. He was picked up after driving over 115 mph and was found with weapons and drugs.

Ware remains in the Montgomery County jail. He is pending charges for Possession with Intent to Deliver a Controlled Substance, a first-degree felony, and Unlawful Possession of a Firearm by a Felon, a third-degree felony.
