A woman who disappeared from McKeesport a decade ago when she was 14 has been found living with a school security guard, police said today. Tanya Kach, now 24, disappeared Feb. 10, 1996.

Joe Sparico, owner of J.J.'s Deli Mart, said the woman he's known for the past six months as Nikki Evans broke down in tears Tuesday and told him she is the missing Tanya Kach, and that a school security guard had kept her locked in a bedroom of his Soles Street house that he shares with his elderly parents.

The circumstances of the girl's 'captivity' are in question. She says the man inticed and brainwashed her to go with him, and she was then locked in his house and not allowed to go out until the last 3-4 years.

He says she was never detained and came with him by her own decision.

There is more to come out about this.

The man is now being questioned about 2 previous missing girl cases in McKeesport. Both went missing at age 14 (same as this girl) both were found murdered, neither case was ever solved. In one of the two cases the girl went missing 14 years ago, 4 years before this girl.
