UPDATE 10/26/08 – Paige and Levi have been found and their parents are en route to pick them up in Council Bluffs, Iowa, where they were spotted under an overpass. The car Levi had stolen from his parents was abandoned in Omaha, Nebraska, and the pair had only sleeping bags for shelter. They have been taken to juvie, where they are awaiting their parents. I’m guessing that somebody’s gonna get grounded. We at the Demon are always happy for a happy ending – and a safe recovery is very happy indeed.  Score another one for the D’D Amber Alert tradition, and good lookin’ out to the person who spotted them. Yay!

Lathrop, MO - Christina Paige Alley, 14, and Levi Samuel Carlson, 16, are missing. They were last seen at a high school football game in Lathrop, Missouri nearly a week ago.  The pair was seen at the football game, and Paige Alley got permission to go home after the band performed at halftime. Paige and Levi have not been seen since, and the credit cards they each had have not been used in the five days since they disappeared.Â
The teenagers were last seen between 7:00 and 8:00 p.m. last Friday night. They were in a maroon 1996 Toyota Avalon with Missouri license PD0 A5U.  Both sets of parents called police when neither teen got home on Friday night. And Paige, who “always calls”… hasn’t. Neither teen has a driver’s license or much experience driving a car. And Levi is bipolar – and off his meds. Great.
At first, police felt that the pair had run off together after what they call “an altercation with parents” – perhaps to Colorado or California or even to Arkansas. But five days have now passed with no sign of the pair. Five days with no calls home, no credit cards, and nobody who’s spotted the car. One alleged sighting in Missouri today turned out to be a false alarm.
Major John Farmer of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Department says that the Missouri Highway Patrol was asked twice to issue an Amber Alert for the couple, beginning as early as Friday night. The Alerts were denied the first two times because they didn’t meet Amber Alert criteria to prove an abduction had taken place. The Amber Alert finally was issued because of new information that Levi had threatened suicide before taking Paige from the game. She is now considered a victim of kidnapping, and authorities are concerned for her safety.
Christina “Paige” Alley is 5’2″ and 130 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing a blue shirt with black pants and sandals and has a round birth mark on her hip.
Levi Samuel Carlson is 5’10″ and 225 pounds with brown hair and brown eyes. He took his guitar with him, which he may have pawned for cash. He may be headed towards Arkansas, Colorado or California.

if you have any information.
I know, I know, it’s runaway teenagers, right? Well, kind of. But when we post an Amber Alert, the missing child is usually found safe and unharmed within hours or, at most, days. It’s a public service, just one of many we offer here at the Dreamin’ Demon. Here’s hoping for Paige and Levi’s safe return.
