The Colorado Springs Police Department is searching for 15-year-old Lia Conace. Lia was reported as missing on 2/17/2023 by her parents. She was last seen at her home in the 5200 block of Statute Dr in Colorado Springs CO. The initial information led to the belief that she was headed to southern Indiana to meet an acquaintance. Lia’s parents immediately contacted authorities in Jefferson County, Indiana to look for Lia at the last known address for this acquaintance, another minor, but authorities did not locate her. Since then, officers have spoken to Lia’s friends and learned that Lia has not responded to any messages, and she has not reached out to any family members. The acquaintance in Indiana denied they have seen or spoken to Lia since she went missing.
There is concern that Lia is somewhere between Colorado and Indiana. It is unknown how she would have gotten to her destination since she does not have known access to money or non-public transportation. Lia has been listed in national law enforcement databases since she was reported missing but has not been contacted by officers. Additional case specific facts have led investigators to be concerned for her welfare. Lia is 5’2” tall, 120 lbs, with brown shoulder-length hair, brown eyes, and a round face.
Anyone with information on Lia’s whereabouts is asked to call the Colorado Springs Police Department at (719) 444-7000; or if you wish to remain anonymous, you may call the Crime Stoppers Tip Line at (719) 634-STOP (7867) or 1-800-222-8477.
