UMD Student Spotted in Baltimore; Missing For 4 Days

BALTIMORE (WJZ)-- The search intensifies for 21-year-old Kaitlyn George. Four days later the disappearance of the University of Maryland student has all of College Park on edge.

University of Maryland and Baltimore City Police are working together.

Investigators say the student's family has not had any contact with their daughter since she went missing.

"We're worried sick about her," said Jeanine Bryde, aunt of Kaitlyn. And an unsettling feeling in College Park still lingers.

"That's the big thing, just not knowing," said UMD student Hayley Garrick.

Police have released a timeline of George's disappearance: at 4:34 p.m. Thursday, a taxi cab entered the south side of Maryland's campus. At 4:42 p.m. George was spotted leaving Allegany Hall with bags in hand and two minutes later - police say George got into the cab.

Later that night, surveillance video shows she was dropped off in Baltimore.

Investigators say George was dropped off at Harborview Marina in Federal Hill. Shortly after, she got into another vehicle and took off.

The next morning, one witness spotted the 21-year-old on the Charm City Circulator, but police say that's the last they know of George's whereabouts.

"We don't know where she's' at our detectives continue to work on this case and follow up with leads and that's where we're at," said Sgt. Rosanne Hoaas of the UMD police.

While foul play is not suspected, the student's family is left praying they'll see their daughter again.

"Our biggest concern is we just want to make sure she's OK,"said Hoaas.

Police say they've had no luck tracing George's cell phone. George is described as 5-foot 3-inches and roughly 120 pounds with blonde hair.

If you have any information on the disappearance you can call Baltimore City Police or the University of Maryland Police Department at 301-405-9960.
