Baden-Württemberg: search for missing girl: new information system

Remshalden (dpa / lsw) - Investigators continued the search for a missing 16-year-old from Remshalden (Rems-Murr district) on Thursday. The police announced that they had now set up a so-called anonymous tip system in the case. Witnesses could easily get in touch via the Internet. According to the police, they still hope to find the 16-year-old alive.

The teenager has now been missing for more than a week. She left her parents' house on January 24, but instead of going to her school she took the train to Kirchheim unter Teck (Esslingen district). From there she boarded the Teckbahn towards Lenningen at 09.17. After that, their trail was lost.

The investigators are looking for witnesses - in particular for people who also rode the Teckbahn on the morning of January 24th. The Red Cross, a helicopter and the mountain rescue service have been looking for the 16-year-old on sometimes difficult terrain. According to the police, a search operation between Kirchheim unter Teck and Oberlenningen was planned on Thursday.
