It's been a long week for Chantel Pontious and her family, after her daughter 16-year-old daughter Audriauna 'Audi' Brown went missing in the evening hours of Fri, March 28, in Silver Lake.
Now listed as a missing person in Kosciusko Co, Chantel is pleading with the public to keep their eyes open for Audi. In the meantime, it feels like a mother's worst nightmare.
"We haven't heard a word since she left Fri night. I just to at least hear her say 'Mom, I'm ok.' I'm worried about who she is with, what she is doing, where she may be," Chantel said.
While her location remains unknown, Chantel said her daughter is familiar with the Warsaw and Akron areas, and has connections to Rochester and Florida. Chantel asks that if anyone does happen to see her daughter to immediately and discreetly call authorities, rather than confront her in person.
Audi is described as being 5'1, 120 lbs, with long brown hair with blonde highlights and hazel eyes. Audi also has a tattoo on her left forearm that reads "Godspeed."
