Philadelphia Police are asking for the public's help finding a 10-year-old girl who has been missing since Tuesday. Cia Young was last seen in the 1900 block of Norwood Street, and investigators say her current whereabouts remain unknown.
The Philadelphia Police Department listed Young as a missing juvenile from its 1st District, according to the department's missing persons blotter. The department is asking for the public's assistance in locating her, per that same listing. As reported by Newport Dispatch, Young was last seen on October 27 in the 1900 block of Norwood Street in Philadelphia.
Anyone with information about Young's whereabouts is asked to contact the South Detective Division at 215-686-3013, per the same account. No further details about the circumstances surrounding her disappearance have been released.
A Familiar Format for Philadelphia's Missing-Persons Alerts
The Philadelphia Police Department has used a similar public-alert format in other recent missing-juvenile cases. In one example, police sought the public's assistance in locating 17-year-old Leah Denny, who was last seen on October 10 at 3:00 p.m. on the 12xx block of Carlise Street, according to the Philadelphia Police Department. That listing described Denny as 4 feet 9 inches tall and 79 pounds, last seen wearing a black hoodie and blue jeans, and asked anyone with information to contact the same South Detective Division line used in Young's case.
No information about Young's physical description or what she was wearing has been made public. Philadelphia Police have not indicated whether Young has returned home or provided an update on the search as of Wednesday.
