Today marks Teekah Lewis' 13th birthday.

The little girl from Tacoma disappeared from a bowling alley more than 10 years ago. There's been no sign of her since.

To mark her daughter's birthday, Theresa Lewis says she's going to go down to the site of the bowling alley today. (The bowling alley was razed years ago and now a fast-food restaurant stands in its place.) She'll put up signs and leave 13 balloons for her daughter.

"It's going to be hard," Lewis said earlier this week. "This is her 11th birthday that I am not going to be there. She's not going to be home."

Tacoma Police are looking for a child who has been missing since about 6:30 p.m. Thursday.

Police spokesman Mark Fulghum said a woman and her two children drove to the Home Depot on Tacoma Mall Boulevard. The mom went in, leaving her 14-year-old daughter and 10-year-old son in the car. The two got into an argument, and the 10-year-old walked off.

The daughter told her mother, and the two looked in the area and couldn't find the child. They called the police, who have been searching the area.

Fulghum said a neighbor told officers that she saw a boy matching the missing child's general description walking with an adult a few blocks from the store near South 64th Street and Wapato Street.

He is described as a 4-foot tall black male, wearing a red shirt, jeans and black and white shoes. Anyone with information should contact Tacoma Police.

UPDATE: The missing child has been found safe, Fulghum said. It appears he just wandered off.

UPDATE No. 2: A Pierce Transit supervisor found the boy and took him to an off-duty officer. The officials "put two and two together" and discovered he was the missing boy.

The boy was reunited with his family.

"He just got mad and wandered off," Fulghum said.

McLemore

Kent Police are looking for a woman who has been missing for a week, and her cell phone is now out of service.

Police say the last time anyone had heard from Alyssa A. McLemore was at 6:30 p.m. on April 9. Her grandmother told her that Alyssa's mother was ill. Since that conversation, no one had seen McLemore.

The next day someone called 911 from McLemore's cell phone asking for help. The phone did not have a GPS sensor, so officers were not able to locate her. After the call, officers spoke to McLemore's grandmother, who did not know where her granddaughter was.

On Sunday, McLemore's mother died.

"Kent Police are worried about Alyssa's welfare due to the call to 9-1-1 and as she has not checked on her mother in several days," Kent Police said in a news release.

McLemore is Asian/Pacific Islander, 5-foot-1 and 130 pounds. Officers are asking anyone who has seen or talked with her since April 9 to call Kent Police at 253-856-5800.
