(CBS/AP) EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. - Authorities are searching for Mandy Marie Matula, a 24-year-old Eden Prairie, Minn. woman who was reported missing Thursday morning.

Matula's former boyfriend, David Roe, who was wanted for questioning in the disappearance, shot himself in the head in a police parking lot prior to questioning Thursday afternoon.

According to CBS Minnesota, officials say the 24-year-old Roe is alive but unresponsive.

Eden Prairie Police Lt. Bill Wyffels says Matula was reported missing Thursday morning after she didn't show up for work. Police believe she was with Roe in Miller Park around 1:30 a.m. Thursday.
