The Philadelphia Police Department is actively seeking assistance from the public to help find missing 3-year-old Kalieb Allen, who has been missing since yesterday morning from the area of 6xx N 32nd St. Described as having a medium brown complexion, brown eyes, and black hair, the child was last seen wearing a white t-shirt, black jeans, and black and white Adidas shoes, according to a report by the Philadelphia Police Department.
Concerns are mounting for the toddler who is believed to be with Jaquia Smith, a 24-year-old black female. The woman was seen leaving the house with Kalieb without the consent of his guardians, and she has not yet returned. The police have highlighted areas where Smith is known to spend time, including 23rd and Diamond and the 1800 block of N. Van Pelt St., in hopes that locals might provide clues to their whereabouts.
Standing at 3 feet tall and weighing approximately 30 pounds, Kalieb's disappearance has triggered a swift response from local law enforcement. The Philadelphia Police have disseminated a photo of Jaquia Smith in the hope that anyone with information might come forward. They encourage anyone who might have seen Kalieb or Jaquia or has any information on their whereabouts to contact the Philadelphia Police Department immediately.
As the search continues, the community is urged to keep an eye out and report any sightings of Kalieb or Jaquia Smith; her connection to the child has not been disclosed by the police; however, the emphasis remains on bringing Kalieb home safely. Local businesses and residents are being asked to review any surveillance footage that might offer insight into the case for the family of Kalieb Allen. Every second in the timeline of his disappearance is critical, and every bit of information could be the key to his safe return.
