Mentally challenged girl, 13, missing near Rotterdam

The police has formed a large scale investigation team consisting of 20 detectives to find 13 year old Sylvana van de Langenberg who went missing in Rozenburg somewhere after 22:00 on Wednesday night. Sylvana's foster mother discovered that she was missing on Thursday morning, April 16th. She was last seen around 22:00 on Wednesday night at her home on Reigerhof. Sylvana is 13 years old, but has the mental capacity of a younger child. The police believe that she was wearing a black jacket with a hood and fur collar, black jeans and gray fake Uggs when she disappeared. The police distributed Sylvana's photo through social media and Burgernet and asked the public to keep an eye out for the girl. The police also performed a neighborhood investigation and spoke to several people in the girl's vicinity, but so far the investigation has yielded no trace of the missing girl. The police would urgently like to get into contact with anyone with information about Sylvana's whereabouts or who may have seen her since Thursday morning.
