Missing Boro Girl Has Been Texting Family, Friends

Mom does not know where she is; police searching

 

A 15-year-old Point Borough girl who ran away Sunday has been intermittently texting family and friends, saying she's OK, but not saying where she is, said the girl's mother.

Allison Chirichello, who is about 5'3", and who will be a junior at Point Borough High School in September, has been texting occassionally using her sister's Blackberry phone, having left her own cell at home, said Colleen Molok, her mother, on Tuesday night.

However, Molok said she does not know where her daughter is and efforts to trace her through the cell phone have been unsuccessful, possibly because it seems Allison often has the cell turned off.

"She texted us Sunday and said, 'I'm OK, I'll be home tomorrow,' " Molok said. But she still hasn't come home.

Point Boro police Chief Larry Williams said police have been in touch with Molok and the girl's father, Tommy Chirichello, who lives in Middletown.

"As we get information, we go look for her, " Williams said on Tuesday night. "We're actively searching."

Allison never ran away before, her mother said.

"She got in trouble, and she ran away," Molok said.

In her texts the last few days, Allison has mentioned she has been in different towns, such as Lakewood, Brick and Asbury Park, Molok said.

When a friend asked her how she's getting around, she said, "I have my ways," her mother said.

Molok said Alilson has no money and is not familiar with public transportation.

Molok's Facebook page says Allison was last seen wearing a light gray hoodie and dark gray sweatpants. Her hair is brown now, but has usually been blonde, the page says.

Molok asks that anyone with information call her at 732-585-7805. Tips can also be called into the Borough police department at 732-892-0060.

if only she knew how dangerous it is out in this world, some day if nothing happens to her she will have learned a very hard lesson. Blessed Mary ask your son to bring her home safe and sound.

My daughter ran away at this age and I know its dreadful just sitting around and waiting....Once my daughter walked through the door I was able to take a sigh of relief.....then I lost it....I yelled and screamed while I was hugging and crying and then I grounded her. It wasnt the last time she ran away and I was always afraid to talk to her about things...make sure you keep open communication with your daughter so that she doesnt feel like she needs to do this again ....I'm holding your hand and praying with you she is home soon and safe!!

Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this time. We pray that when Allison does return you find a reason for her decision of running away. She must care for you all if she is considerate enough to at least let you know that she is okay. Hopefully the cell phone company will pick something up when she makes a call. Keep your faith, be strong and God will answer your prayers for her safe return,

If she is texting and making phone calls it won't be long until they track down which cell phone towers her phone hit. From there its just a matter of figuring out who she knows in that small area.

It doesn't matter if the phone is off, it is still traceable.
