The search intensifies for a missing teenager in Miami-Dade, with authorities making an appeal to the public to help locate 15-year-old Genesis Estrada, who vanished in November. According to WSVN, she was last seen on November 10, 2023, in the vicinity of the 13900 block of Southwest 268th Street in Miami.
The Miami-Dade Police Department described Estrada as standing 5 feet tall and weighing 140 pounds, with brown eyes and hair. Last donning a black shirt, black jogging pants, and carrying a black book bag, her disappearance has triggered concerns as she may need specific services. No one at the time knowing, her whereabouts could provide critical clues to her current predicament.
Authorities have been combing through the area and following leads since the teen was reported missing. The police are calling on anyone with information to come forward. According to a NBC Miami report, the Miami-Dade Police highlighted the urgency in finding Estrada, stating that "further information was not available," indicating a potential lack of leads in her disappearance.
The Missing Persons Squad at the Miami-Dade Police Department's Special Victims Bureau, led by Detective M. Eloi, is spearheading the investigation. A plea for public assistance has been issued, and those knowledgeable about any detail relevant to Estrada's current location are encouraged to contact the detective. She may be in a situation where her need for services, potentially critical for her welfare, emphasizes the immediate need for her safe return.
Community members who have seen Estrada or have any information regarding her disappearance are urged to call Detective M. Eloi or any detective from the Special Victims/Missing Persons Squad at (305) 715-3300. People wishing to remain anonymous can also reach out to Crime Stoppers at (305) 471-TIPS (8477).
