Everything we know about girl, 17, who vanished mysteriously on way to airport
Pheobe Bishop vanished after she failed to check-in for a flight to see her boyfriend - several worrying developments have come out during the 15 days she has been missing Shocking new claims have emerged in the desperate hunt for missing Australian teen Pheobe Bishop, 17, who vanished on her way to the airport. She was last seen leaving her home in Gin Gin, Queensland, on May 15, to head to the airport but she mysteriously never made it onto her flight. She had been due to board a flight to Brisbane and then continue on to Peth, where she planned to meet her boyfriend. Pheobe had been living with a couple - Tanika Bromley and James Wood - at the time of her disappearance. Shocking new claims about the teen have since been revealed. Police said Pheobe was due to board an 8.30am flight on the day she was last seen, and have suggested the couple she lived with drove her to Bundaberg Airport - but it is not known if she was dropped off. It is also not clear why the teen was living with the pair. They were questioned by police and charged with unrelated weapons offences. Police have not charged any people in relation to Pheobe's disappearance and it is not suggested the couple were involved. Cops have sealed off their house, where the teen had spent recent weeks, as forensic investigators search through the property. Several worrying developments in the 17-year-old's missing persons case have emerged as this search enters its 15th day... Worrying last phone call Pheobe's heartbroken boyfriend, who was meant to meet the teen at Perth Airport, shared the concerning final call he heard from his girlfriend before she vanished. He said Pheobe rang him while she was being driven to the airport on the morning of May 15. Her high school sweetheart said he was unable to hear anything on the other end before the call cut off. Despite this, he didn't think anything of it and went to Perth Airport to wait at the terminal for her but she did not arrive. Queensland Police are reportedly "quite confident" Pheobe didn't make it to Bundaberg Airport because she did not check-in to her flight. Key CCTV footage A car, similar to that Pheobe was driven in before she vanished, was caught on CCTV after she was meant to be on her flight. A grey Hyundai ix35 was spotted driving through Gin Gin at 10.30am the day she was last seen. Cops have since seized a grey Hyundai ix35, owned by Wood, and have declared it a crime scene. The couple told detectives they gave Pheobe a lift to the airport that morning. Shock weapons twist Police discovered weapons inside Bromley's SUV. Detectives said these gun offences were "unrelated" but they have not completely ruled out possible links with the disappearance. Bromley had already been on bail for other weapons offences after a sawed-off shotgun and flick knife were found in her car, back in February. Police confirmed Wood was charged with an unrelated weapon offence on Sunday. Police said: "Police have charged a man with weapons offences, after police allegedly located a shortened firearm and ammunition during a search of a grey Hyundai ix35 and a Gin Gin home, both of which had been declared crime scenes for an unrelated matter." Worrying messages Pheobe sent to friend Pheobe told a friend days before she vanished that she had "been better" in concerning messages. The 17-year-old also told the pal, who was checking in, about her plans to go to Perth. The teen wrote: "I've been better but I focus on the good s***. I take of (sic) to WA in three days! Get out of this s**t home for a bit so that will be good, just packing atm." When asked how long she would be away for, Pheobe wrote: "10 days beautiful x" Concerning family comments Although it was not exactly clear why the teen has been living with the couple, social media posts she made before her disappearance suggested Pheobe has fallen out with her mum. Despite this, mum Kylie Johnson released a statement after her disappearance and said this was out of character for her daughter. She said: "Pheobe would never not touch base with the people she loves. She would never go this long without contacting someone or anyone." Kylie's sister, and Pheobe's aunt, Caz Johnson, however hit out at the mum and claimed the 17-year-old sent messages out of the blue on April 26. The messages from Pheobe said: "Up s*** creek but s*** happens." She added: "I'm flying the f*** out of here to see my it goes to plan I'm not coming back. I can't do s*** anymore. I need to get out of this hell hole."

Missing teen's chilling last call to boyfriend
The boyfriend of missing teenager Pheobe Bishop has revealed the chilling final call he received before the 17-year-old disappeared from her home in regional Queensland two weeks ago. Pheobe was living with two housemates at a property in Gin Gin, southwest of Bundaberg, when she was last seen on May 15. The 17-year-old was supposed to fly from Bundaberg to Brisbane before catching another flight to Western Australia where she would meet up with her boyfriend. However, the teenager failed to board her flight and has not been seen since. Speaking to the Daily Mail, Pheobe's boyfriend said he received a call from her as she was en route to the airport. However, he explained that he couldn't hear anything Pheobe was saying on the other end of the line before the call was cut off. The boyfriend said he waited at Perth Airport for several hours for Pheobe to arrive, but she never did. He later told his friends that he didn't realise anything was wrong, posting on social media, 'Maybe I deserve all the pain I am feeling right now, I mean it is my fault, I should have done better. 'Me staring at her dry texts wondering if I did something wrong and not asking cuz I don't wanna be annoying.' Pheobe's housemates Tamika Bromley and her partner James Wood told detectives they drove the teenager to the airport in Ms Bromley's grey Hyundai ix35; however, police believe Pheobe never arrived at Bundaberg Airport as she failed to check in for her flight. The Hyundai was later seized by detectives as part of the investigation, with the Gin Gin property being declared a crime scene. During the search of the vehicle and house where the teenager was last seen, police located a shortened firearm and ammunition. Mr Wood, 34, was charged with one count of unlawful possession of weapons (short firearm) and authority to possess explosives. He was issued with a notice to appear at Bundaberg Magistrates Court on June 13. Ms Bromley faced court over unrelated weapons charges, including possessing or acquiring restricted items, unlawful possession of weapons, and two counts of failing to hold the required authority to possess explosives. There is no suggestion the charges are linked to Pheobe's disappearance. Ms Bromley was granted bail on Tuesday after appearing on video link at Bundaberg Magistrates Court. She was seen in public for the first time on Wednesday after being driven to Gin Gin police station and escorted out as part of her bail conditions. Police will continue to investigate Pheobe's disappearance but called off the search in Good Night Scrub National Park after five days. The search expanded to the national park after police found evidence may have moved from the area prior to their arrival. 'In addition to investigative work, physical searches will continue as needed and as information is provided,' a police spokesperson said on Wednesday. 'The greater Gin Gin area remains the focus of the investigation.' Police told NewsWire there were no further updates regarding Pheobe's disappearance.
