Everett police: Missing 14-year-old girl found safe

Everett police say the 14-year-old girl was found safe and back at home as the weekend waned.

Alaya Dixon hadn't been seen since Monday, May 19, last spotted at a Subway in South Everett.

"I just want to find my daughter," her father, Troy Dixon, told FOX 13 going into the weekend.

Police said she was accompanied by two classmates and three unknown men, believed to be high school age or slightly older.

"This is not common for her, she is very silly and obnoxious sometimes, but this particular instance I don’t think it’s something she would want to do intentionally," Dixon said.

A teacher may have seen Dixon on Monday walking westbound on 112th Street Southwest from 4th Avenue West in the Twin Creeks area.

Everett PD says Dixon did not have her cell phone, had not been on social media and hadn't logged onto her school laptop.

"In this instance I’m just trying to get to the bottom of the situation," Dixon said. "We don’t know what to do, we’re just praying and hope she comes home."

The Source: Information in this story came from a missing persons bulletin from the Everett Police Department's Facebook page.
