Hollister police are looking for a 14-year-old runaway girl who might be with a 41-year-old man, according to a statement from police.
The girl’s grandmother, who is her legal guardian, reported the girl as a runaway Thursday. The grandmother reported to police that she had never gone missing and that she is concerned the girl could be with Clint Wageman, 41.
Wageman is a family friend and distant relative, according to police. His last known address was in the 100 block of Sixth Street in San Francisco. He no longer at the address and his cell phone number was recently disconnected.
Police noted that recent Internet searches on the teenager’s home computer revealed she was looking at apartments for rent in the Oakland area.
Police described her as a white female, 5-foot-9, with blond hair and blue eyes, and weighing 175 pounds.
Wageman is a white male adult, 6-foot-2, with brown hair and brown eyes, and weighing about 195 pounds. Police are calling him a person of interest in the case.
Anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of the girl is encouraged to call 911 or the Hollister Police Department at (831) 636-4330. People wishing to remain anonymous can call WeTip at (800) 78-CRIME. Information provided to WeTip may qualify for a reward.
