The Hall County Sheriff's Department is asking the public to be on the lookout for two girls who ran away from their homes in Wood River, Nebraska Tuesday night.

Officials first thought 15-year-old Elizabeth Radney and 14-year-old Brooke Wescoatt were headed to Des Moines, but now believe they might be going to Cedar Rapids. They may be traveling in a 1995 white Ford F-150 with an extended cab and a fifth wheel hitch.

Anyone who spots them are asked to call the Hall County Sheriff's Department at 308-385-5200 or contact local law enforcement.

Technically violated a forum rule putting that in the "Exact Title" line. I hope the hosts will be understanding.

The Hall County Sheriff's Department is asking for the public's help in locating two missing teen girls.

The department says Elizabeth Radney and Brooke Wescoatt may be headed toward Des Moines or Cedar Rapids, Iowa from the Wood River area.

Radney, of Wood River, is 5'6, 120 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes. Wescoatt, of Doniphan, is 5'2, 115 pounds with blonde hair and green eyes.

Radney's mother says the girls were last driving a 1995 white Ford pickup with a regular cab and no fifth wheel hitch. This is a correction from a previous report from the sheriff's department's Twitter page.


Anyone with information on the teens' whereabouts is asked to contact the Hall County Sheriff's Department at (308) 385-5200
