- Anieca and Aniya Ogden when missing from their father’s home on March 8
- Police have been unable to track them because they left without their phones
- Their father, George Ogden, is pleading for help tracking down the twin sisters
The father of two missing teenage girls in Detroit is pleading with the community for helping finding them nearly one month after they disappeared.
Anieca and Aniya Ogden, 14-year-old twin sisters, were last seen at their father’s house on March 8.
Detroit police said the girls left the home on Robson Street near Curtis Street, east of Greenfield Road, together without permission and have not been seen since.
They have been unable to track the Mumford High School ninth graders because they do not have cell phones with them, however investigators believe they are still in the area due to leads provided by the school counselor, reported FOX 2.
‘If you have seen my kids, just please, tell them to come home,’ said their father George Ogden.

‘Tell them what they’re doing out here is not right. And be kids, be teenagers, as long as you can be. The world we’re living in is too unsafe to be trying to grow up too fast.’
‘If they’re not home, they’re not safe. In the world that we’re living in today, it’s very unsafe. It’s dangerous and they’re 14 years old and these kids, they don’t understand dangers that are out here lurking for them,’ George said.
‘I never would have pegged them to just leave like that. As a father that’s trying to raise kids on his own, it’s heartbreaking.’
They are both described as five-feet tall, 130 pounds with sandy brown hair and brown eyes.
Anieca was last seen wearing a beige tank top, shorts and orange ‘Jordan’ shoes. It is unknown what Aniya was wearing.
Any one with information on their whereabouts is asked to call Detroit’s 12th Precinct at 313-596-1240 or 911.
Detroit Police Department Capt. Philip Rodriguez told WXYZ: ‘We just want to ultimately make sure that these young ladies are safe and they’re returned to their proper residences.’

On March 3, their sister Ashleigh Lett said on Facebook, ‘Please help me find my 14-year-old little sisters Aneica and Aniya Ogden. They left the house about 12:30 this afternoon in River rouge/downriver area!! Possibly could be on the westside of Detroit.’
Their father had been able to find them and brought them home before they vanished again.
