Police Search For Missing 11-Year-Old Florida Girl





By First Coast News Staff

SARASOTA COUNTY, FL -- There is an Amber Alert in Florida for a missing 11-year old.

Carlie Brucia is five feet tall and weighs 120 pounds. She was last seen on Sunday wearing a short-sleeved red shirt and blue jeans. Brucia has blond hair and blue eyes.

Police believe she was taking a short cut home on Sunday, and while walking behind a car wash in Sarasota, a man approached her and grabbed her.

Investigators are looking at surveillance video from behind the car wash. It does show a man approaching the girl and police say she does not appear to know him.

The suspect is a white man, about 5'10" and 200 pounds. He is believed to be in his 20s or 30s. He was wearing mechanics clothing.

If you have any information concerning the whereabouts of this child, please contact FDLE or the Sarasota County Sheriff's Office at 941-861-4260 or 1-888-FLMISSING (1-888-356-4774).

It's too bad the outcome was the worst one can expect, I have a cousin the same age living in Sarasota. What a tragedy and this guy had a long rap sheet where his parole officer recommended incarceration for violating his parole and the idiot judge said NO!
