From the Lyon County Sheriff's Office


The Lyon County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help locating the parents and identifying the young girl in the attached photo. She was found wandering alone this morning in Fernley, Nevada.

She was discovered on West Newlands Drive adjacent to Jill Marie Court in Fernley. She appears to be 2 or 3 years old, approximately 3' tall, 30 lbs, with long dark brown hair, and still wears a diaper. She seems to understand English, but won't tell deputies her name.

If you have any information regarding this child's parents or the child herself please contact the Lyon County Sheriff's Office as soon as possible at 775-463-6620.

Why does the County have to pay the whole bill? Just my opinion.
