A massive multi-agency search is on for 9-year-old Phylisa Prussia of Bottom Yard district, Bath, St. Thomas who was allegedly abducted on Thursday, October 14.

Reports from the Bath police are about 7:10 p.m., Phylisa was last seen on her veranda, playing with dolls. She was wearing a white blouse and blue shorts.
