The man had followed Roland home, the roommate said, but sped off as Roland got out of her car.
The roommate said she was supposed to be meeting up with Roland – but never heard from her.
She is thought to be wearing a camo fleece with an orange Remington hat and driving a 2015 Silver Jeep Cherokee with license plate HZC7778.
But in the early hours of Monday morning, Brian Perroni, a former colleague, wrote on Twitter that her car, purse, wallet and phone have been found in the Houston Galleria area.
