COLUMBUS – Police are looking for an 11-year-old East Side girl who walked away from home on Thursday night and did not return.
A-Niyah Elie left her home on foot to gather with friends against the wishes of her guardians and had not returned late Thursday, according to investigators with the Columbus Police Missing Persons Unit.
She was last seen wearing a white tank top with spaghetti-straps, white jogging pants with black stripes and the word “love” on one side, white pink-and-black colored Air Jordans and may be carrying a backpack with a hat hanging off it, police said.
Her hair will be in an Afro style since she recently had the braids seen in the photo removed.
A-Niyah is described as 5’2” tall/120 lbs. with black hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with any information the whereabouts of A-Niyah Elie is asked to contact the Missing Persons Unit at 614-645-4624.
