Help sought in finding missing girl

Friday, May 15, 1998 | 10:11 a.m.

A 15-year-old Las Vegas girl is missing.

Audra Cryer was last seen by neighbors boarding a city bus on the corner of Rancho Drive and Lake Mead Boulevard at 3:30 p.m. April 20. She is possibly being held against her will, according to her mother, Barbara Burns.

Burns said she hasn't heard from her daughter since that day.

"Which is very unusual," Burns said. "She's never gone two days without calling me."

Cryer was supposed to testify against a 38-year-old ex-convict who is presently in jail for allegedly assaulting Cryer with a knife.

Cryer is described as 5'7, 130 pounds with dark blonde hair and blue eyes. She has a heart tattooed on her left shoulder and is in need of a surgical procedure.

Her family is offering a reward for Cryer's return. If you have any information concerning Cryer or her whereabouts contact: Nevada Child Seekers at 458-7009, Las Vegas Metro Police at 229-LOST or Attorney Robert Glennen at 384-8981.
