Original Release 5/30/23:

SPD is asking for the public’s assistance locating a missing vulnerable juvenile

17 year old Kaleenah Caruthers was last seen this evening at approximately 10:00pm in the area of 3300 E. 44th Avenue.

Kaleenah suffers from severe cognitive disability, which leaves her particularly susceptible to physical harm if not under proper adult care and supervision. Kaleenah is approximately 5’8, 250lbs, with long brown hair (mid back in length). She was last seen wearing grey shorts, purple t-shirt, flip flop style footwear, and was in possession of a rolling style suit case, grey in color. It is possible she has since changed clothing.

If you have information regarding Kaleenah’s whereabouts, please call crime check at 509-456-2233. If you see Kaleenah, please call 911 and keep her in sight until first responders arrive.
