Police are searching for a 25-year-old woman after she disappeared when she stopped to look for a child she saw walking along an Alabama interstate highway.
Carlethia “Carlee” Nichole Russell called 911 about 9:30 p.m. on Thursday in Hoover, Alabama, and reported seeing a toddler walking along the side of the interstate, the Hoover (Ala.) Police Department said in a press release. After calling 911, Russell stopped to check on the toddler and also called a family member to tell them about the situation.
“The family member lost contact with her, but the line remained open,” police said. “Officers who were already en route to the location of the initial 911 call located the female’s vehicle and some of her belongings nearby, but were unable to find her or a child in the area.”
