CINCINNATI (WKRC) \u2014 A Colerain teenager has been missing for more than a week, and her family has been working around the clock to find her.<\/p>\n

Madison Fields, 16, was last seen around 4 p.m. on February 13. Her parents say she was last seen leaving the InTown Suites on Colerain Avenue, where they were staying at the time.<\/p>\n

Fields’ father, Tyler Hirn, said he discovered that Fields was messaging an 18-year-old man named Josh on an app called “Session” and was supposed to meet up with him.<\/p>\n

“Nobody should go through this. It’s breaking us down,” Hirn said.<\/p>\n

“I’m punching in anything and everything to find her. I can’t just stop looking,” said Carrie Hirn, Fields’ mother.<\/p>\n

Not knowing where their daughter is at is almost more than the Hirns can handle as they search to find her.<\/p>\n

“It’s day nine of her missing, and we’re gathered here just to put more flyers out and try to get her face out there more. As much as we can so somebody will say something,” Tyler Hirn said.<\/p>\n

Dozens of people responded, meeting at the Kroger parking lot off of North Bend Road.<\/p>\n

“We want to hit up as many businesses as we possibly can, right? At this point, we’ve already kind of searched through Colerain and the Harry Lee area. So, we’re going to kind of branch out,” said Joseph Selvidge, the father of Fields’ boyfriend.<\/p>\n

Volunteers braved the cold to lend a helping hand. The hope is that bringing more awareness will help find her.<\/p>\n

“We’ve had word that the flyers have made it all the way to New Richmond, Indiana,” said Selvidge.<\/p>\n

As word spreads and the search continues, her parents want their daughter to know they’re trying to find her.<\/p>\n

“We’re definitely not mad at her. We just wanted her to come home,” Tyler Hirn said.<\/p>\n

Colerain Township police say they were notified of her disappearance on February 16 and began their investigation.<\/p>\n

She was last seen wearing a black “Champion” hooded sweatshirt, camouflage pants, and black shoes and was carrying a black backpack and white grocery bag.<\/p>\n

If you have information that could help find her, you’re urged to call Crime Stoppers at (513)-352-3040.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"CINCINNATI (WKRC) \u2014 A Colerain teenager has been missing for more than a week, and her family has…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":485083,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2],"tags":[4,450,451,3,452,453],"class_list":["post-485082","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-breaking-news","tag-breaking-news","tag-breakingnews","tag-headlines","tag-news","tag-top-stories","tag-topstories"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/485082","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=485082"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/485082\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/485083"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=485082"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=485082"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=485082"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
