A suspect has been arrested and charged in the disappearance of Kada Scott, a 23-year-old nursing assistant from Philadelphia who has been missing since October 4. Keon King, 21, faces a kidnapping charge and is believed to be the last person to have contact with Scott after she left work early on the night she vanished. Police are urgently searching for King's vehicle—a 1999 metallic-gold Toyota Camry with PA license plate MSX-0797 and front-end damage—as they believe Scott may have been inside it. While the investigation is being led by the Homicide Unit, authorities emphasize they are "still treating this as if Ms. Scott is still alive" and her family pleads for her safe return.

· Who is Missing: Kada Scott, a 23-year-old nursing assistant.
· Last Seen: By her mother on October 4, leaving for work. She arrived at her nursing home but left before her shift (10 p.m. - 6 a.m.) ended.
· Suspect: Keon King, 21, has been arrested and charged with Kidnapping.
· Connection: Evidence shows Scott was in communication with King and met with him shortly after leaving work. King is considered "the last person... in contact with her."
· Key Evidence: Police are searching for the suspect's vehicle, a 1999 metallic-gold Toyota Camry (PA license plate MSX-0797) with front-end damage on the left front bumper. They believe Scott may have been in this car.
· Context: Before her disappearance, Scott reported being harassed by an unknown individual via phone. King has a prior history, with dismissed charges of kidnapping and strangling a female acquaintance from earlier this year, which prosecutors are now refiling.
· Investigation Status: Led by the Homicide Unit but not characterized as a homicide. Police are "still treating this as if Ms. Scott is still alive."
· Official Stance: The "No. 1 priority is locating Ms. Scott."
· Family Statement: Her father, Kevin Scott, expressed the difficulty of the situation but maintains faith that she will be found safe.
