A Kansas mother who vanished along with her two young daughters may have been coerced to travel to a religious rehabilitation facility in Mexico, according to investigators.

Martha Unger, 23, and her daughters Madilynn Grace Unger, 2, and Haylie Faith Unger, 1, were reported missing on Friday, the Kansas Bureau of Investigation wrote in a post on Facebook.

Authorities are asking the public for help in locating the young family who were last seen at their home in rural Haskell County just before 7 p.m. on Friday.

It’s believed Unger is driving a 2015 white Ford Explorer with the Kansas plate 301RJY.

Investigators said they believe Unger and her children may have been “coerced to travel to Mexico to a religious rehabilitation facility with Corney and Elizabeth Klaasen,” a couple who are in their fifties.

It is not clear how Unger and the couple know each other or which “religious rehabilitation facility” they may be traveling to. They are believed to be driving a white and black Chevy Blazer with a Mexico license plate.

Unger is described as a white female, approximately 5 foot 6 inches tall, weighing around 120 pounds. She has brown hair, and green eyes. Both of her girls have blonde hair and blue eyes.
