Isabel Mercedes Celis with her dog. She should still be with her
 family and being happy.



6 year old Isabel Mercedes Celis, was reported missing from her family's home Saturday Morning

6 year old Isabel Mercedes Celis was reported missing from her family’s home Saturday morning in Tucson, Arizona.

            Isabel Mercedes Celis parents pleaded for her safe return on Wednesday. Her father, Sergio Celis, said “Please, Please, to the person or persons who have Isa( Isabel) tells us your demands, tell us what you want, we will do anything for her.

            Both of Isabel Mercedes Celis parents thanked the volunteers who have taking part of the search.

            In the beginning of the search there were more than 150 officers from various agencies looking for little Isabel. On Tuesday it was reduced to more than 20 officers and it should have lowered so much.

            Isabel was last seen by family members at 11 at night, when she was going to bed. On  Saturday police found that one of the screens for the window was removed. This brings lots of thoughts.

            The Tucson authorities describe the child disappearance as suspicious. They have not identified suspects nor they know what might have happened to Isabel.

            Tucson police chief, Roberto Villasenor called the disappearance a complex case and that they have limited information.

            Police have searched a 3-mile radius around Isabel’s home. They have also searched in a local landfill. They say the landfill search was conducted because trash had been taken out Saturday before police could secure the home.

            Police chief Roberto Villasenor said police have been shifting from searching to an investigating phase since investigators have revisited sites they believe could be relevant.

            This case is very similar to the Kyron Horman’s. They both went missing but at different times. They were also very young.

  1. Liset, this is a great article to practice equalizing, but you neglected to really weave the two stories together. The reader is going to make a slight connection to Kyron because you mentioned his name, but it will be more like an afterthought, much like, "Oh, I guess they are similar stories." And then the reader will not take the connection beyond that.
