Palmer Heights: A frantic search is on for a 14-year-old girl named Enci Wu, who goes by Aubrey. She left her home late Friday night while her parents were asleep, and now her family is really worried.
Aubrey is described as an Asian girl weighing about 145 pounds. Her dad, John Gehrmann, last saw her in a Nirvana hoodie and black yoga pants. But she was spotted on surveillance wearing something else, which has made things a bit tricky.
She’s a freshman at Easton Area High School, and her dad is pleading for help. He shared on Facebook that she’s going through a serious mental health crisis and has been missing for over 30 hours.
John is asking everyone in the Lehigh Valley to keep an eye out for her. He believes she might be trying to get back home but is scared to return. He just wants her to come back safely so they can help her.
On Saturday, police got a tip that she might have been near Parkland High School in Allentown, but when they checked, she was gone. They also saw her on video wearing a navy blue sweater and carrying a small bag.
It seems she had a secret phone with her, but she got rid of it. If anyone knows anything about Aubrey or has seen her, they should call the Palmer Township Police Department or dial 911. Her dad has asked people not to approach her but to let the police handle it.
The situation is really tough for the family, and they just want their daughter back home safe.
