“This is no runaway,” said her father Russell Barnes. “This is no child that’s having a bad day or a bad night. We don’t feel that she’s fell in love. That’s not her character.”

Her sister agrees.

“I think somebody might have taken her,” said Deena Barnes, her half-sister.
.................
WJZ has confirmed Phylicia tried to stay at a 24-hour emergency shelter on Guilford Avenue. But a staff member who answered the phone overnight told WJZ they didn’t know she was a missing child adding, “We called the police to come get her because minors aren’t allowed to stay here.”

The staff member tells WJZ a police officer picked her up, but it’s not clear where she was taken. It’s also unclear on what day Phylicia was kicked out of the shelter.

ETA: Just checked the Prayers for Phylicia FB page...a comment posted 13 minutes ago by her 'older brother' says they (the family) do not believe it was Phylicia at the shelter. :(
 
<snip>

There was a report the missing teen was spotted at a Baltimore shelter Thursday night, but that tip was inaccurate. It was a case of mistaken identity. The mother says that upsets her.

"All of these false leads make me feel and believe," The missing teen's mother said. "The actual culprit is trying to throw law enforcement and the media off. Someone has taken my baby against her will. This is not her character."
..................
"We are getting a little concerned here," Baltimore Police Officer Anthony Guglielmi said. "That it's now approaching three days. We have contacted the Maryland State Police blood hounds Unit. We have also notified the Baltimore police homicide section."

This poor family. Her poor, poor mom.

Offering up prayers along with her FB followers she will be found safely and soon. Pretty girl and very much loved.
 
Foul play suspected

Phylicia is from Monroe, North Carolina & was visiting family in Baltimore...her family believes she left to get something to eat on Tuesday, December 28th...she hasn't been heard from since. :(

And just today LE is saying they suspect foul play, think she's been abducted & may no longer be in Maryland!

Thanks for posting you guys. I hope she is found safe and I will keep my eyes and ears peeled.

I am in Ellicott City, MD, about 10-15 miles outside of Baltimore City, and anywhere from 7-15 miles outside of Baltimore County. I've lived in this area of Maryland my whole life. Again, I wasn't raised in or around the immediate Bmore City area, but let me tell you, you don't have to be to know exactly why it's called "Body-more". I've gotten lost in my car in some JACKED-UP neighborhoods. The place is riddled with homicide, violence, drugs, and not-so -nice people. And frankly, there are some parts of Baltimore County, close to the city, that are not much better. I know all major cities are rough, but Baltimore is pretty awful. It's one place you definately do not want to wander alone in if you are a young female from out of town.

The house she went missing from is 6520 eberle drive. This neighborhood, while in the county, is ROUGH. It's the southern most point of Pikesville, which used to be a predominately (pretty much all) Orthodox Jewish neighborhood, but over many years has succumbed to crime and hoodlums coming in from Baltimore City, which is close by, right down Reisterstown Rd (140) past Northern Pkwy (going South). I've been to that area several times for Kosher baked goods, and my husbands family lives North of Pikesville, and most people know that once you pass the Reisterstown Plaza, it gets SKETCHY. Pikesville used to be a nice, safe community, but it's really gone by the wayside.

Prayers for her and her family. I hope she is safe.
 
Last Tuesday........nothing like a weeks head start. They have to get better at this.
 
It's been on the local news since she went missing, if I can remember. I was waiting for it to get posted here. I need to find out how to make my own threads, if allowed, when I hear someone is missing locally.
 
I'm about an hour away... Wish I had known sooner, even though we were out of town until a day or two ago. My thoughts/prayers are with the family that she is found soon...

You can start threads without any special permission, watchful_eye. It's easy to do.

And if you need help after your edit time has expired, mods can help...just click on the Alert/report post button & explain what you need.

From what I can tell, the local news has been covering Phylicia's story...I've been following since Dec.30th...the news stations in North Carolina have covered her story, too.

From what I've read & videos I've watched, her family has been very active getting out w/ flyers & talking to people on the street.

Listening to her mother's plea in the videos makes me wish I could do more for her.

Oh- almost forgot.

There's a FB page for Phylicia -
