Kent Police released a sketch of what Alyssa McLemore might look like now in an effort to find the Kent woman missing since 2009.<\/p>\n
McLemore was 21 when she disappeared over 15 years ago on April 9, 2009. She was 5 feet 3 inches tall and about 130 pounds at the time she disappeared. Her hair is naturally black but she was known to sometimes bleach her hair, according to Kent Police. She had a 3-year-old child when she disappeared.<\/p>\n
McLemore was living with her mother and grandmother on the East Hill of Kent at the time of her disappearance. Her mother was gravely ill, and her family stated that McLemore would not have remained away from her mom and child willingly. Her disappearance is considered suspicious, according to Kent Police.<\/p>\n
Her cellphone was last tracked on April 10, 2009 at about 9:15 p.m. when someone used it to call 911. The phone did not have a GPS sensor, and the caller did not give a name or location. This was the last contact with her phone. A witness reported seeing McLemore on April 10 near 30th Avenue South and Kent Des Moines Road, according to police.<\/p>\n
Detectives have aggressively investigated every lead over the years, but her disappearance and whereabouts remain unsolved, according to police.<\/p>\n
In cooperation with McLemore’s family, Lost and Missing in Indian Country, Kent Police detectives and a forensic artist, an age progression sketch was created to better represent what she might look like now.<\/p>\n
“We are asking you to take a look at the sketch, and the photos of Alyssa from around the time of her disappearance, and contact Kent Police if you believe you have even the smallest tip regarding her whereabouts or her disappearance,” according to a Kent Police statement.<\/p>\n
McLemore would be 36 years old, with her 37th birthday on July 23.<\/p>\n
If you have any information about Alyssa McLemore, call the Kent Police Department Tip Line 253-856-5808 and reference Kent case number 09-3906 or send your tip to KPDTipLine@kentwa.gov.<\/p>\n
In April 2019, Kent Police issued a news release asking for the public’s help to find McLemore. Later in 2019, the Washington State Patrol and its Homeward Bound program featured McLemore on a semi-trailer in an effort to find the woman.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
