The Detroit Police Department is requesting the public's assistance in locating two missing sisters, Saniyah and Mariah Johnson, both aged 15. According to information provided by ClickOnDetroit, the Johnson sisters departed from their cousin's residence in the 5000 block of E. Outer Drive yesterday with an unidentified teenage boy and their cousin, Aaliyah Hamilton, without permission and did not return.
The missing twins were last seen in similar attire; Mariah was wearing a black sweater and black shorts, while Saniyah was wearing a blue sweater and black shorts. Mariah is described as being 5′0″ tall, weighing 80 pounds, with black hair and eyes. Saniyah is reported as 5′3″ tall, weighing 100 pounds, with blonde hair and brown eyes. Concerned citizens or anyone with actionable information are urged to reach out to the Detroit Police Department’s 11th Precinct at 313-596-1140, or to contact Crime Stoppers at 1-800-Speak Up.
Concurrently, the Detroit Police Department's social media has posted separate alerts for each of the sisters. The post for Saniyah Hamilton—an apparent clerical error, as previous reports list her as Saniyah Johnson—can be found on their official Facebook page, where the department pleads for assistance: "Please help us find missing Saniyah Hamilton." Interested parties can view the social media appeal directly at the Detroit Police Department's Missing.
Similarly, an appeal for Mariah Johnson echoes the same urgency, asking the public to come forward with any valuable information that could lead to locating her: "Please help us find missing Mariah Johnson." The plea, and the snapshot of the young girl it is strived to find, are hosted on the Detroit Police Department's Missing Facebook page, inviting the community's watchful eyes to aid in their recovery. The dire situation of the Johnson sisters profoundly underscores the broader concern for the safety of our youth and the vital role that public engagement plays in such critical times of need.
