The plot thickens with the August 28 traffic stop in Pearland, where police pulled over a gray Ford Explorer with an Arkansas license plate. The driver, initially identified as Markevion Harris, turned out to be Davante Kenyatta Clark, 28.

 Clark was charged with using a fake license plate and carrying a weapon. He claimed he rented the car from someone named Joshua Marks, but Marks says he hasn’t been in touch with Clark recently.

Adding to the concern, Karen didn’t show up for work at FEMA on August 22, which is out of character for her. Her family and friends are worried, noting that her disappearance is unusual.

Records from Texas Equusearch also show that Clark has been linked to stolen vehicle cases in the past. Now, investigators are hoping to track Karen’s last known location by reviewing her phone records to find out if she was in contact with anyone before her vehicle went missing.

These new details from the search warrant underscore the urgency of the search for Karen Miles and reveal possible connections to previous cases involving Davante Clark.
