13-year-old Latisha Cross and her three-month old son Damari Elvine, who police say left home Tuesday with an unidentified man have been found Sunday morning.
Police say Cross and Elvine have both been located and are safe. Both mother and child are at a local hospital being evaluated.
Last Tuesday, Latisha should have boarded a school bus, but the Cross family told police that a neighbor saw the eighth-grader get into a midnight blue Toyota Corolla. Police said she may have left with an older man she met on a telephone “party line”.
Police said they do not know the man’s identity.
Family members told police that Latisha took all her son’s clothes, some baby formula and changes of clothing for herself, and had told several family friends that she was “tired of” being treated like a kid.
….but she is a kid.
My heart goes out to her. My little sister is 14, and I can’t even imagine her kissing a boy let alone having sex. I pray that God keeps her close.
