DALLAS — Police are searching for a missing 25-year-old woman who was last seen Monday evening in far northeast Dallas.
A CLEAR Alert that had been issued Tuesday in their search for her has since been canceled. WFAA is working to find more details.
Kyaira Nicole Williams was last seen about 5:30 p.m. in the 9700 block of Walnut Street, near Audelia Road, according to a police news release Tuesday afternoon.
Police asked for the public's help in finding Williams. Officials said Williams, who is Black, is 5-foot-6 inches tall and 130 pounds, with brown hair that has light brown tips.
She was last seen wearing a black shirt with a red square and writing on it; black and red plaid pants; white socks; and eye glasses, according to a police release.
Dallas police said Williams is believed to pose a credible threat to her own health and safety, which is why a CLEAR, or Coordinated Law Enforcement Adult Rescue, Alert has been issued.
The CLEAR Alert program, created by 2019 Texas legislation, is "designed to close the gap between missing children and senior citizens" and is issued to help law enforcement in "finding and rescuing missing, kidnapped or abducted adults or adults who are in immediate danger of injury or death, as well as aid in locating any potential suspects."
In order for a CLEAR Alert to be issued, the following circumstances have to be met:
- the individual 18 to 64 years of age, and their whereabouts are unknown
- a preliminary investigation has verified the adult is in imminent danger of bodily injury or death, or the disappearance is involuntary such as an abduction or kidnapping
- the clear alert request comes within 72 hours of the individual's disappearance
- sufficient information is available to disseminate to the public to help locate the individual, a suspect, or the vehicle used in the incident
At this time, its unclear the circumstances surrounding Williams' disappearance, but WFAA crews were on the scene near Cedardale at Bonnie View where it appeared law enforcement was conducting a search. Dallas police confirmed their canine and helicopter are assisting with the search. Video from the scene also showed Dallas mounted police searching in what appeared to be an empty lot.
