UPDATE:
Hundreds filled a Palmyra football field candles in hand during a vigil for missing woman Kortne Stouffer
The Lebanon DA is investigating her disappearance and is calling it suspicious.
We don’t know much from police at this point, but people at Thursday night’s event say a number of young people Kortne was last seen with have been interviewed by police.
Her mom said there are a lot of opinions about what might have happened but she is letting police do their job.
The light from hundreds of candles out lit the moon hanging in the Palmyra sky as family and friends clung together praying for the return of 21-year-old Kortne Stouffer.
“Come home, we just want her to come home,” stated Kortne’s mother Wendy. Kortne’s mom Wendy, dad Scott and siblings organized the event, calling on the community to help.
Earlier Thursday, the DA’s office announced they were investigating the disappearance.
Friends say she went missing after a night out at the Hardware Bar in downtown Harrisburg.
She was last seen at her Palmyra apartment by neighbors early Sunday morning.
Friends say her apartment door was open her keys, purse, cell phone and dog left behind.
She was last seen wearing a yellow tank top with black shorts.
Her family played Kortne's favorite reggae and country songs for the free-spirited Palmyra girl they call a modern day hippie. They say she has Bob Marley's song lyric "One Love" tattooed on her arm.
The family has bumped up a reward for information about Kortne $10,000.
“If they can find her, we just want someone to bring her home,” stated the family.
Police filed a search warrant for Kortne's apartment in the 800 block of West Main Street in Palmyra.
Anyone with information is asked to call Palmyra Police at 838-8188 and also email kortneinfo@gmail.com.

The search for a missing woman in Palmyra continued Thursday as her parents announced they'll be giving a cash reward to anyone with information leading to their daughter being found.
The Lebanon County District Attorney is investigating this case and he told us that the circumstances in which Kortne Stouffer disappeared are suspicious and they are treating this as it could be a crime.
Kortne Stouffer has been missing since the weekend. Her parents say nothing like this has happened before and she speaks to at least one person in the family every day, and they're hoping someone out there knows where she is.
Kortne Stouffer was last seen by her neighbors Sunday morning around 3:30 after a night of dancing in Harrisburg.
"No one in the family had heard from her on Sunday which is very strange,” stated her mother, Wendy Stouffer. “Somebody talks to her everyday."
Kortne was wearing a yellow tank top with black shorts. She also has a tattoo on her arm that says "One Love".
“She's 21, 5 foot 8 inches with blonde hair with dreadlocks,” Stouffer continued. “She's sweet, she's funny."
Palmyra Police and the Lebanon County District Attorney's office are investigating the disappearance but say there are no suspects and it has not been determined if a crime has taken place.
"They told us they're doing everything they can to find her,” Wendy told CBS 21. “They're doing their job."
Family and friends have posted missing signs in an effort to find Kortne, and her parents are now offering a $5,000 reward for information leading to her being found.
"We had friends and family starting Monday putting fliers out, walking around talking to people, sitting outside the apartment waiting for her to come home,” Stouffer explained. “We've had massive amounts of friends and family helping us to try and find her."
Kortne's parents say all that they can do is hope that someone knows where she is.
"If you know anything, please tell someone so we can bring my baby home," pleaded Stouffer.
A prayer vigil for Kortne will take place Thursday night at 8 o'clock in the parking lot of the municipal building in Palmyra. Kortne's parents say that the public is welcome to attend.
If you know any information about her whereabouts, call police.
