BENSALEM, Pa. (WPVI) -- The family of a missing young woman from Bensalem, Bucks County, went on social media Tuesday night looking for answers in her disappearance.

Twenty-one-year-old Lindsey Piccone was last seen on Tuesday, Sept. 6, in Bensalem, and her vehicle was later found abandoned at Tyler State Park.

"There are still a lot of unanswered questions that I don't have. We still don't know where she is. Is she alive? Is she dead?" her mother Jeanette said in a Facebook Live video published Tuesday night on the Facebook page of Bucks Co News Feed, a local news source in Bucks County.

Her parents spoke directly to their daughter.

"I want to reach out to her and say, 'Lindsey, we love you. If you could see this, please call us," Jeanette said in the Bucks Co News Feed video. "We miss you and we love you and we need you back home with us."

"I need you to come home and let's work it out. We're not mad. We're just saddened because you're missing," her father Paul said.

In the video, her cousin Heather said Lindsey left a note that was "very vague and implied a permanent goodbye, but it wasn't clear what she meant by that, if she wanted to harm herself or if she was running away."

The family says there is a $10,000 reward for any information leading to finding Lindsey.

The Bensalem Police Department says there will be another search of Tyler State Park on Thursday.

The following agencies will be taking part: PA Department of Conservation and Natural Resources (PA DCNR), Bensalem Police, Newtown Police and Greater Philadelphia Search and Rescue.

Police say if any first responders would like to assist with the search efforts, they should respond to the PA DCNR parking lot, which is located at 101 Swamp Road, Newtown, Pa, 18940 at 10 a.m.

Officials had conducted multiple searches of Tyler State Park using air, water, terrain and K-9 search teams in the days following her disappearance.

Last week, the Bensalem police reissued a missing person's poster of Lindsey on their Facebook page.

Police say Lindsey's dogs and her cell phone were not with her when she went missing.

Lindsey is described as 5 foot 3 inches, 120 pounds, and was last seen wearing a black tank top.

Anyone with information should contact Bensalem police at 215-633-3719.
