Police arrest stepmother of missing N.C. girl

On Sunday, police arrested Elisa Baker, the stepmother of Zahra Clare Baker who went missing over the weekend from her home in Hickory, North Carolina.

Baker is facing over a dozen charges unrelated to Zahra’s disappearance. The charges include communicating threats and writing bad checks.

On Saturday, an Amber Alert was issued for the 10-year-old girl. Her parents claim they last saw her sleeping in her bed around 2:30 a.m. Saturday.

Baker is white, 5 feet 1 inch tall and weighs 85 pounds. She is hearing impaired and wears a prosthesis below her left knee.

According to Clyde Deal, deputy chief of the Hickory Police Department, Zahra was last seen wearing a camouflage T-shirt and black knee-length tights.

Chief Deal told reporters: “We are conducting interviews now and following up on the leads we have so far. As of right now, we haven't ruled anything out. We're exploring all possibilities.”

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of this girl should call Hickory police at 828-328-5551 or simply dial 911.
