Around 1:30 Monday afternoon, Hayward police issued an alert that an 11-year-old girl was missing and asked for the public’s help in finding her. A short time later, Hayward police confirmed the girl had been found safe.
"Basically I heard some yelling as I was coming outside my house," said Greg Strand, of Leona Heights.
"The neighbors up the street were watching their car out front. A girl had scurried out of a white sedan, screamed and ran towards my neighbors. They helped her out and put her in their house until the police came," Strand said. "We’re all checking our security cameras at this time to just verify and see if we can get a license plate or some kind of added assistance," Strand said. Strand says McDonnell Avenue is a semi-private road and he and his neighbors are always on the lookout for people and cars they don’t recognize.
