The devastated family of a teenage girl in Michigan wants to know what happened to her daughter when she didn’t go to her high school classes and never returned home on Friday. She somehow ended up dead near her high school’s athletic field.
On Monday, January 30, Michigan police announced they found the missing teenager, Adriana Davidson.
Police found the teen’s body at around 1 pm on Monday under the bleachers near the high school’s athletic field. There was no sign of injury or violence and foul play was not suspected in her death.
The last time she had been seen was three days earlier, on Friday, January 27, near her school, Pioneer High school, in Ann Arbor.
When Davidson, who was nicknamed Addy, did not return home from school on Friday, January 27, her parents reported her missing. Police conducted a search and rescue operation.
Davidson’s schoolmates said that they last saw her on Friday morning at around 11 am outside the school.
The teen arrived at the school in the morning on Friday via public bus but told her friends she wasn’t feeling well. She then left the school and returned by public bus at noon, evidence of which is seen on the bus surveillance video. It is unclear where she had gone when she left the school. She did not go into the school when she returned and it is a mystery what followed.
According to her brother, Anthony Lopez, his sister texted with a friend at 12:26 pm on Friday. The friend asked her if she was okay, and she texted back, “no.” That was the last the friend heard from her.
Lopez informed the police that someone had found his sister’s phone near the tennis courts on Friday and had given the phone to one of Davidson’s friends.
Police are trying to figure out the timeline. What happened to Davidson after she returned to the school and was found near the athletic field?
On Saturday, Davidson’s brother Lopez posted on Facebook that he had heard that another student told Davidson’s friend that they had seen her at the bus stop near a man wearing all black, but they did not seem to know each other.
Police are in possession of the phone and are looking into it. An autopsy has been performed and the results are pending. Police believe the girl was alone when she died, based on available video footage.
