PPB Needs Publics Help Locating Female, Van Involved in Possible Abduction

On Tuesday, May 13, 2025, at approximately 10:45 a.m., East Precinct officers responded to the 800 block of Southeast 162nd Avenue on reports of a possible abduction. Officers determined that just before 10:00 a.m., a white van pulled up next to a female who was walking down the street. A person exited the vehicle and approached the female before ushering her into the van and driving off. The vehicle was last seen at 10:01 a.m., driving northbound on Northeast 162nd Avenue from Northeast Glisan Street.

The vehicle PPB is attempting to locate is a white van with a damaged front and rear bumper. It also has distinctive hubcaps and a broken back window that is taped over. The female was wearing a black or white shirt, a grey jacket, green pants, and a black backpack.

Anyone who spots this female or vehicle, or knows anything about this case, is urged to call 911 immediately and reference case number 25-124871.
