AMBER ALERT NJ - Dulce Maria Alavez, 5, abducted at Bridgeton City Park, 16 Sept 2019

[Really?]

So the FBI are getting involved.

I’m guessing they are reviewing traffic cams and any other camera surveillance in the area.

I’m in SJ, so our local news just did a bit on this. They are in the air over the park. Gosh, it looks huge for a 5 yr old.
Lots of trees , a lake ( currently draining it) and marshland.

Praying she is found safe.

I wonder if she was aware enough of her surroundings and if she had been at the park often enough that she would know how to try and walk home.
Google Maps
I wonder if that is her elementary school and if she might have tried to walk to it.

I don’t have a very good feeling ab that lake.

Yeah, I'm in Northern DE and haven't seen really much of anything on the local DE news (they seem to be mainly focused on all the shootings in Wilmington this month and the unidentified remains of a 10 year old found on a softball field in Smyrna), but I'm glad to see it seems pretty saturated on the local Philly stations (3, 6, 10, Fox29). Hoping for the best for this little one.

 

[Really?]

I dunno if she frequented the park often. I missed it if they said so.

Can’t imagine her walking too far in those little dress shoes. MOO

 

[Wild Rose]

I hope that they check all local motel/hotels? Are there many in this area??

Praying for this little girl to be safely returned. After seeing that they have footage of her in the convenience store yesterday it does seem like the Mother's not lying and that her story is lining up. I'm thinking this is an abduction.

Also, if you know the area well, are there unpaved roads off those those recreation fields for trucks and workers that service those fields that cut out to major paved roads?

“She would always be with me or my mom,” she said. “I don’t know why she just ran away.”

Dulce was last seen wearing a pink T-shirt, white shoes and brown pants with flowers and butterflies, KYW-TV reports.”



These are not the clothes she was last seen wearing in the store. Did mom give this other description and if so why?
“I don’t know why she just ran away.” I don't like that comment. MOO

 

[Wild Rose]

I hope that they ask anyone at those basketball courts to check any photos they took on their phones, maybe there is background info, likewise check vehicle cameras from area drivers which so many people have today.

Me too, but not discounting her running away if she's the one who knocked her brother's ice cream to the ground.

 

[SAMS]

Am I reading correctly? Mom is 19? So she was 14 when she had Dulce. Very young. Just observing here. Where are you Dulce?

BBM

So did brother tell mom that she knocked his ice cream over and ran away? Otherwise that’s a strange comment. Different description than what she’s wearing in CCTV in store. MOO

I just saw this article, so I am following now. Taken from a playground sounds like a true abduction, but again, I'm running behind.
I don't like this. It's very worrisome and scary for that beautiful little girl. She may already be "lost" to the world, as we see often. Kidnap, do bad things to her, get rid of the evidence permanently. Prayers for her safety.

Authorities Searching for New Jersey 5-Year-Old Who Vanished From Playground


Dulce Maria Alavez was last seen near the swings at City Park in Bridgeton

According to police, the girl’s mother, 19-year-old Noema Perez, drove her kids to the playground at about 4 p.m. on Monday. She let Dulce and her 3-year-old brother play on the swings while she waited in the car with an 8-year-old relative. The car was in a parking lot approximately 30 yards from the playground area, police say.


After about 10 minutes, the 3-year-old returned to the car, saying he was unable to find his sister. He pointed his mother to the area where he last saw her. Perez searched the area for about 15 minutes before calling her brother. They searched for nearly an hour before contacting police.

My fear, abduction. Plus, there are witnesses that saw them, including Dulce, on the playground...and not that it means a lot, but the mom is still wearing the clothes she had on when at the store buying them ice cream...so, there would be dna, depending on how mom hurt her...but I don’t feel like she did hurt her. I am thinking about taking a drive down to the park. Can’t get this out of my head.

Very much agree here...playground....would check area county offenders who used playgrounds for committing offenses. very worried for little Dulce. Mom looks in shock IMO.

 

[Rosiebones]

If she was abducted, she would have to have been taken east through the trees toward the Cohansey River and there are only ways over that river. One looks to be a pedestrian bridge and the other is a road. It seems to me that narrows the starting point for a search to those two places in terms of looking for surveillance cameras.
If she was not taken that direction, then she would have been in the wide open fields around the parking lot and the basket ball courts. People interviewed there said they saw no indication of an abduction.

 

[borndem]

If someone saw the brother and sister and the ice cream cone incident, and s/he had bad ideas, it would have been easy for that person to come over or coax her over, saying, "Come with me, and we will get him a new ice cream cone, and we can get one for you, too. He can stay here because we'll be right back." That, or similar, may have been all it took -- to take her hand and walk off, or take her to a car.
<chills> I just don't have a good feeling, same as many of you.
