Overview
- Texas authorities issued an AMBER Alert for Merlin Chirinos-Argueta after reports she was taken from Keithville, Louisiana and later seen in Allen, Texas.
- Investigators say the 13-year-old may be with 18-year-old Daniel Vasquez Mejia, who has black hair and brown eyes.
- The pair may be traveling in a white Chevrolet SUV with Texas plate VML6061 that has a skull sticker on the rear driver-side window and a mojo sticker on the passenger-side rear window.
- The Caddo Parish Sheriff's Office and the Texas Department of Public Safety are coordinating the search and urge anyone with information to call 911 or 318-675-2170.
