Informant: Are you all set for that? That's on us. Thanks. Unit: The child was seen going north on Sarah from Cicana, then turning west on the next street. I spoke with someone in Conno, Wisconsin; they did not see anyone. Can 817 and 815 respond and make their way here? This appears to be a missing person. We do not yet have a formal missing person report. Someone was walking on the road looking for the child; not sure if that was a parent. I'll check if Metro has a drone available. If 815 needs more personnel, I can send units. The last direction seen was north on Endoyer. The caller described the child as about 3.5 to 4 feet tall, around 4 or 5 years old, unknown gender, black hair, wearing pajamas with red bottoms. Location shows Grand Chute near North Cross Creek Circle. A unit later noted the child may have long brown hair in a ponytail; the person I talked to was unsure about clothing.
