An 11-year-old girl disappeared in Miami, Florida, after she went to take out the trash and never returned, according to her family.
Jayla Jones was last seen Monday morning at her home, wearing a pink shirt and blue shorts, news station WPLG reported.
The girl told her mom she was going outside to take out the garbage, but didn’t come back, the outlet reported.
“Her grandma is crying, her mother is crying. We love her,” Jayla’s mother, Nakia Jones, told the outlet.
Her great-aunt, Doris Jones, said they don’t believe that Jayla left with anyone the family knows.
“She’s not with a family friend. She’s not with anyone we know of,” she told the outlet.
“Nobody should be sleeping, because if it was somebody else’s kid, they’d want everybody in the world to help them find them.”
Police have issued a missing child alert for the girl and have been searching the area for her, according to WPLG.
