Police in Southeast Georgia Search for Missing Sixteen Year Old Girl After She Was Last Seen Walking Away From Her Alma Home Wednesday Evening

ALMA, GA — Police in southeast Georgia are asking the public to help find a 16-year-old girl who was reported missing after leaving her home in Alma. Amy Grace Robertson was last seen about 6:30 p.m. Wednesday, according to the City of Alma Police Department.

Authorities said she was walking away from her residence when she was last seen. Police released a description of what she was wearing and where she was believed to have been headed, and are now urging anyone with information to come forward.

What police say about the teenager's last known whereabouts

Investigators say Robertson was seen leaving her home Wednesday evening, but have not publicly said where she may have gone after that. The missing-person notice centers on the time she disappeared and the basic details that could help someone recognize her.

Police listed Robertson as 5 feet, 3 inches tall and about 120 pounds. They said she has brown hair and brown eyes. Those details, along with the clothing she was wearing, are the main identifiers released so far.

Clothing description could help residents spot her

At the time she was last seen, Robertson was wearing black sweatpants with multiple colors and patterns, along with a blue sweater. Officers included the clothing information in their appeal to the community because it may help neighbors, drivers, and business owners identify her if they saw her in the area.

Police have not said whether there were any additional sightings after she walked away from her home. For now, the alert remains focused on helping people recall anything unusual they may have noticed Wednesday evening in and around Alma.

Alma police ask the public to share any tips

The City of Alma Police Department issued the missing-person information and is leading the search. Residents who have seen Robertson or know where she may be are being asked to contact investigators directly rather than wait for additional updates.

Police said tips should be directed to investigator Sgt. Z. Sarro with the Alma-Bacon County Crime Suppression Unit at 912-632-8751. The call line is the main contact point authorities provided as they continue looking for the teenager.

Why missing person cases depend on quick community response

When a young person is reported missing, police often rely on fast calls from the public to fill in gaps about where the person was last seen. Even small details, such as a vehicle, a direction of travel, or a clothing description, can help investigators narrow their search.

In this case, the department has released the time Robertson was last seen, a physical description, and the clothing she wore. Those details give residents a clearer picture of who officers are looking for and increase the chances that someone will recognize her.

What is known now and what remains unclear

So far, authorities have not released any information about possible circumstances behind Robertson’s disappearance. They also have not said whether there is any evidence of foul play or where the search is centered beyond the Alma area.

The missing-person notice remains active as police continue asking for help. For now, the most important public role is to pass along any credible information to law enforcement as soon as possible, especially if someone believes they may have seen Robertson Wednesday evening or afterward.
