The Milwaukee Police Department has successfully located Journee Grandberry, the 11-year-old girl who had previously been reported as critically missing. Grandberry was last seen in the vicinity of the 4400 block of North 57th Street in Milwaukee.
Reported as missing since yesterday, her absence stirred an urgent response from law enforcement and the community alike, prompting calls for public assistance. The "critical missing" status, a term used by police to indicate individuals who may be in heightened danger often due to various vulnerabilities, heightened the urgency of the situation. According to a report by JSONLINE, Grandberry had last made contact with her family yesterday afternoon.
Earlier today, police provided an update announcing that Grandberry had been located and that she was safe. The Milwaukee Police Department has not released details about where Grandberry was during the time of her disappearance or the circumstances under which she was found.
During the search, descriptions of Grandberry had been circulated with the hope of a swift resolution. She was portrayed as a Black girl standing around 5-feet tall and weighing 110 lbs, last worn a black jacket, black shirt, and black scarf with rainbow-colored leggings and black Nike Jordan shoes. The community was asked to assist with any information, further highlighted by CBS58, who quoted the department's plea: "Anyone with information about her location should contact the Milwaukee Police Dept. by calling (414) 935-7272." Though now safe, the details surrounding Grandberry's brief disappearance remain limited.
