BRADFORD, AR – Hannah Osborn, 17, vanished after walking away from her father’s home on Saturday evening, and hasn’t been seen or heard from since.
The teen was last seen at 7:40 p.m. on August 9 in Bradford, Arkansas, a rural town about 70 miles northeast of Little Rock.
Days later, there are still no clues, no calls, and no trace of where she went.
Osborn had been staying with her father, Wesley, at his home in a quiet residential area of Jackson County when she reportedly left on foot carrying only an orange-and-black backpack. She wore a white T-shirt and blue jeans, and has not contacted any friends or family since that evening. The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office officially listed her as a missing person on Sunday morning.
Family members say Hannah’s sudden silence is highly unusual. Her father told local media that while she has been known to meet people through Snapchat and leave for short periods, she has always returned or stayed in touch. This time, she left no messages, and there’s been no activity on her phone or social media accounts. Wesley noted that he saw unfamiliar vehicles in the area around the time she disappeared and fears that she may have gotten into a car.
Despite multiple tips, no verified sighting has been confirmed. Authorities have not stated whether they suspect foul play, but the family insists this is not a typical runaway situation.
Hannah is described as 5 feet 10 inches tall, 120 pounds, with blue eyes and sandy-blonde hair. The Jackson County Sheriff’s Office is urging anyone with information to contact them at 870-523-5842.
