Concern is growing for three young sisters in Wenatchee, who have been missing since last week. The Washington State Patrol has activated an Endangered Missing Person Alert, and authorities are requesting public assistance to locate the children. FOX13 Seattle reports that the sisters, ages 5, 8, and 9, were last seen on Friday at approximately 5:00 p.m. while on a visitation with their father, Travis Decker. They have since become unreachable, raising concerns for their well-being.
As detailed by the People website, the father, described as homeless and living out of his vehicle or at campgrounds and various hotels or motels in the area, has breached the parameters of a parenting plan. This deviation from the plan has been considered "not normal and cause for the alarm." Door-knocking by the authorities so far turned up no sign, in search of the missing girls.
The young girls, Paityn, Evelyn, and Olivia Decker, range in height from 4'2" to 4'8", with the eldest having brown hair and the two younger ones being blonde, all with brown eyes. Their father, Travis Decker, is a 32-year-old male with brown eyes and black hair, standing at 5'8" and weighing 190 pounds. The vehicle associated with them is a white GMC Sierra pickup truck bearing the license plate D20165C. This was confirmed by the KOMO News.
Authorities are appealing for anyone with knowledge of their whereabouts or other relevant information to come forward to assist in reuniting the children safely with their family. Anyone sighting the vehicle or the individuals described is strongly encouraged to contact law enforcement immediately.
