Chappell, a student of the Sophia Special School, went missing last Wednesday, and relatives are worried about her wellbeing.

According to her adoptive father Curt Ross, the girl left her ‘A’ Field, Sophia home between the hours of 1 am and 6 am on Wednesday when everyone else in the house was still asleep.

Ross said Chappell had no problems at home and her family is still questioning the motive behind her disappearance.

Chappell was adopted into the family about six years ago.

Ross said that a report of the girl’s disappearance was made at the Turkeyen Police Station.

Anyone with information about the missing teen is asked to contact the nearest police station or relatives on telephone numbers 655-5263 and 631-0358.
