The mother of 22-year-old Alexis Porter, who went missing after travelling to a creek with a male friend, was yesterday still looking for her, even as she heard rumours that her daughter’s bloated body had floated up at the creek.
However, when Yevette Porter checked with police there was no such report. She said the father of her child received a call to that effect and they decided to check with the police only to be told that it was just a rumour.
She was also told yesterday morning that her daughter was at the Georgetown Public Hospital with broken legs but when she rushed to the institution her daughter was not a patient. The woman said she rushed to the hospital even though she suspected that the report might not be true as she had checked the entire hospital on Wednesday.
The woman said she returned to the Vigilance Police Station yesterday morning and was told that officers went to the Vigilance home of the male friend Alexis had left home with on Sunday, but found that he was not at home on both occasions. She told them that they should check at his place of employment. The woman said she wanted the police to question the young man, known as ‘Shallow’, since she believed he had not been telling the truth.
The young man has been a regular visitor to the home and on Sunday last he visited and invited Alexis to the creek opposite Splashmin’s Fun Park. Alexis has not returned home to date. When questioned by Porter on Tuesday, ‘Shallow’ told her that Alexis had left his group of friends stating she was going to travel with a friend of hers. He said that he had not seen her since.
