Regler was dropped off in Fairview Park around 8 a.m.

At noon, a manager from the North Olmsted gas station brought Regler lunch.

Around 12:30 p.m., Regler was talking to a friend when Regler told her a car that had driven through the lot and left was now back. Regler then told her friend she would call her back after 3 p.m. when she got off work.

At 1:25 p.m., Regler initialed a credit card receipt.

At 2:45 p.m., the employee who was relieving Regler showed up at the gas station and found it empty.

Co-workers called police at 3:30 p.m.
