The McDonald County Sheriff’s Department is seeking a missing child.
According to the Missouri State Highway Patrol, Rebecca Marie Allen, 8, may be with a non-custodial parent, her mother, Teresa Lynn Allen, also known as Teresa L. Gantt, 39. The pair were last seen at the girl’s home, 711 Woodard Lane in Washburn, at about 10:30 a.m. Saturday.
The girl’s biological father has sole custody of Rebecca, as the mother is mentally unstable and capable of harming the child.
“She has threatened to kill the child before turning [her] over to the Division of Family Services,” said Barbara Graham, a spokeswoman with the highway patrol.
Rebecca is described as being about weighing 48 pounds with blond hair and brown eyes. The mother is described as about 5-foot-3, weighing 160 pounds with blond hair and brown eyes.
Anyone seeing the pair or having information about them should dial 911 or contact the McDonald County Sheriff’s Department at 223-7429.
