Authorities stop motorists in search for missing girl
Authorities are canvassing neighborhoods and talking to motorists as the search for a missing 12-year-old girl continues.
Kayleah Wilson was last seen the afternoon of March 28 when she left home to walk to a friend’s birthday party about a mile away, across a busy highway.
On Sunday, one week after she disappeared, police planned to stop cars in the area and ask drivers if they noticed anything a week before.
Police Sgt. Joe Tymkowych said authorities are also searching two residential areas near the girl’s home.
A search of some ponds and a wooded, undeveloped area Saturday turned up no sign of Kayleah, a sixth-grader who weighs 145 pounds and has brown hair and blue eyes.
