Police ask motorists for help finding Colo. girl

GREELEY, Colo. — Authorities are canvassing neighborhoods and talking to motorists in Greeley, Colo., as the search for a missing 12-year-old girl continues.

Kayleah (Kay LEE uh) 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 says authorities are also searching two residential areas near the girl’s home, including one that wouldn’t have been on her way to the birthday party.

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.
