When she was last seen, Kathya was wearing a gray hoodie with white writing, blue jeans and sandals with socks. Her case number is IP260053268.

Victor’s case number is IP260053263. Police did not provide details about the clothing he was wearing when he was last seen.

Investigators are urging anyone who has seen either teenager or knows where they may be to call 911 immediately. Information can also be shared directly with the IMPD Missing Persons Unit at 317.327.6160.

Anonymous tips may be submitted to Crime Stoppers of Central Indiana by calling 317.262.8477, also known as TIPS. Residents may also use the P3tips mobile application on Apple or Android devices or submit information online through CrimeTips.org.

Information provided directly and anonymously to Crime Stoppers may qualify for a cash reward of up to $1,000 if it leads to a felony arrest. Only tips submitted through Crime Stoppers are eligible for the reward, and callers can remain anonymous.

Even a detail that appears small, such as a recent sighting, a vehicle description or information about where either teen may be staying, could help detectives move the cases forward. IMPD said the release may be updated as additional information becomes available.
