Three Young Sisters Missing After Planned Visit Washington

Authorities in Wenatchee, Washington, are searching for three young sisters—Paityn, 9; Evelyn, 8; and Olivia Decker, 5—who went missing after leaving their home for a scheduled visitation with their homeless father, Travis Decker. The girls were last seen around 5 p.m. on May 30, but neither they nor their father, who has been living in his vehicle or at various motels and campgrounds, have been heard from since. Police report that while visitation was part of a parenting plan, Decker has gone beyond its parameters, raising alarm among authorities and the family. Despite the serious concern, the case has not met the criteria for an AMBER Alert, though an Endangered Missing Person Alert has been issued by the Washington State Patrol. The community and the girls' mother have urged the public to assist in locating the family, noting that contact with Decker's phone is currently unreachable. Officials describe Decker as 5 feet 8 inches tall with black hair and brown eyes, driving a white 2017 GMC Sierra with Washington plates, and anyone with information is urged to contact police immediately.
