PHILADELPHIA (KYW Newsradio) — A Philadelphia mother is asking for the public’s help in finding her 18-year-old daughter.
Shalaya Porter was last seen in the early morning hours of June 5 near her home at 46th Street and Fairmount Avenue in West Philadelphia.
Her mother, Kaleia Porter, said she’s doing all she can to get the word out about her daughter.
“I’ve been out here at corner to corner passing out flyers, handing them all around the city,” she said. “I made over 2,000.”
Kaleia said she first became worried when she noticed her daughter’s phone was left behind.
“I sat on the couch and called her phone, and that’s when I realized that something is not right. Her phone is here, but she’s not,” she said.
Kaleia said Shalaya was about to graduate high school and had plans to study architecture and fashion in college.
“I need her back home,” she urged. “She’s got a bright future ahead of her. … Just bring my baby home.”
Shalaya is 5 feet, 6 inches tall and about 120 pounds. She has a medium build with brown eyes, a light brown complexion and black hair. She also has a nose piercing.
Police ask anyone with information about Shalaya’s whereabouts to contact the Southwest Detective Division at 215-686-3183 or call 911.
“That’s my only child,” Kaleia stressed. “Just let her go, bring her home. [I’ll] send a cash reward for you. I just can’t do this without her.”
