Bailey Cederblom, missing Spokane girl, found after about 48 hours

Bailey Cederblom, missing for close to 48 hours, was “located” and “safe” by 12:30 a.m. Saturday after her family, community members and police in several units worked to find her, according to a Spokane Police Department news release. 

She ran away and police, with officers from several units searching for her, found Cederblom in a tent near the intersection of North Division Street and Lincoln Road Sgt. Terry Preuninger said.

The 13-year-old girl left home between 2 and 5 a.m. Thursday, likely to meet up with a boy her age, said her mom, Cassie Montgomery.

Police said Cederblom’s friends believed she was meeting with someone they did not know at either a park or Longfellow Elementary School, according to a Thursday Spokane Police Department news release.

By Friday evening, having accepted donations, Montgomery was offering a $6,000 reward for “whomever gets me to my baby,” according to her Facebook post.

Cederblom underwent a minor surgery Wednesday and left her pain medicine behind, Montgomery posted.

“She is incredibly kind,” Montgomery wrote on Facebook. “Please help me find her.”
