Houston couple vanished from Austin club
Krislyn Gibson and Sidney Taylor haven't been seen since they went to a nightclub in Austin late Friday night.

HOUSTON (KTRK) -- Krislyn Gibson was last seen early Saturday morning in Austin. She was with Sidney Taylor. They drove from Houston to Austin on Friday to attend a concert Saturday. Late Friday night they went to a nightclub. That's the last anyone has seen them. Both Austin and Houston police are investigating and Texas Equusearch has more than 20 people searching for them.

"They went to a club that night and never made it back to the friend's house where they were going to spend the night at, so their clothes and everything is still at their friend's house," said Tim Miller with Equusearch.

As friends look for the couple, with little on which to go, they do know Taylor's Dodge Charger was found in midtown Houston. And a GPS locator pinged his cell phone near Bear Creek Park.

"If they would have left they would have called or told somebody," said Calvin Davis, a friend of the couple. "They just wouldn't leave from city to city without letting us know."

Davis doesn't know what to think.

"I don't think they drove back, personally. Somebody had to drive them back," he said. "I'm dumbfounded right now. I don't even know where to begin to be honest with you. I'm just hoping everything can come to some type of light where we can find them safe."
