“In none of the other times she’s run away has it gone for this long, and they’ve also had some sort of communication with her,” Officer Michael Vega of the Miami Police Department said.
A woman who said she was Randi’s caretaker told Local News 10 that she’s been taking care of the child for the past seven years. The caretaker added that although they have no idea where she is, she could possibly be “with a man who was last seen driving a white van.”
Vega confirmed that authorities are aware of the possible man and van.
“She may be with a white male inside a white van. This is all the information we have at this time on the possible person that she is with and the possible vehicle she may be in,” Vega told CBS Miami.
Randi stands 5-feet-3-inches tall and weighs around 140 pounds. Anyone with any information is asked to contact the Miami Police Department at 305-603-6300 or 305-579-6111.
