A South Carolina teen vanished on Friday after leaving behind a suicide note and is believed to be with a 41-year-old man.
Chloe Renae Alexander, 15, was last seen in Gaffney, a city on the border of North and South Carolina, before vanishing, leaving behind her cell phone and the note.
The Gaffney Police Department has launched a search for the teen and is enlisting the public for help in the case.
Although it is unclear where Alexander went, police believe she has been communicating with a man named Ricky Dean Clinton. It’s unclear what his relation is to the child.
Police said they have no reason to believe that Clinton is hurting Alexander. Authorities haven’t disclosed what Alexander may be wearing.
Anyone with information on the teen’s whereabouts has been asked to contact Major Brian Blanton with Gaffney Police.
A day before she disappeared, Alexander posted photos on her Facebook account with her parents and tagged the Anderson County Department of Children’s Services.
‘Mom, Dad, I can’t even put in words how much I miss ya’ll and love ya’ll and only if i could have ya’ll back in my life i would do anything,’ she wrote in the caption.
