Three years after she mysteriously vanished from a park, the family of missing New Jersey girl Dulce María Alavez is still wrought by pain but hopeful that she will be found alive.
Each child had an ice cream in hand as they ran toward the playground, Alavez Pérez told NBC10. About 10 minutes later, the mother saw the 3-year-old boy upset and crying, his ice cream on the ground and his sister nowhere to be found.
Investigators think Dulce may have been taken by a man who had been near the park on the day of her disappearance, and they believe he may have driven off in a red van. They described him as a light-skinned, possibly Hispanic man standing between 5-feet-6 and 5-feet-8 with a thin build and acne on his face.
Last year, authorities released aged-progressed photos depicting what Dulce may have looked like at 7 years old. The Cumberland County Prosecutor’s Office said investigators have conducted hundreds of interviews over the last three years. The office on Thursday said tips continue to come in and that, “in the absence of evidence of Dulce’s demise, investigators hold out hope that she is alive.”
