Friends post video, letters pleading for teen’s return

Friends of a 15-year-old New Hampshire girl who vanished last fall on her way home from high school have released a video and letters pleading for her return.

Abigail Hernandez was last seen Oct. 9 after leaving Kennett High School. Police say she walked her normal route toward home and sent several texts between 2:30 and 3 p.m. Police say she never made it home.

The messages from the friends posted on www.bringabbyhome.com express how much they miss and love her.

The video message ends with a reminder about the $20,000 reward for information leading to her, as well as a number to call with information: (800) CALL-FBI.
