MEDINA, Ohio -- The Ohio State Highway Patrol is looking for a mother and son who may have been abducted from Pennsylvania.

Police said Lori Galina, 39, and her 16-year-old son, Tim, were sending text messages while possibly being held against their will.

The last message was traced to Medina County, near U.S. 224 and Lake Road. So far, troopers have not found anything.

They are asking motorists to watch out for a late 1990s or early 2000 red Pontiac with Pennsylvania tags that include a "T" or an "X.".

The Medina Patrol Post received a call Sunday from a Pennsylvania resident saying that her co-worker was abducted.

Troopers are investigating. Anyone with information should call 330-725-4921.
