I have reason to believe that she is alive and relatively well, and will be contacting the Phoenix police department with findings that were brought to my attention. To respect Dilon's privacy, and to not hinder any other investigations, I will not be able to provide additional information at this time.

Messages were left for the Detectives investigating this. Conflicting reports were received about the status of the case, and it may be closed.

Hopefully she is safe and well. Thank you for the post.

Dilon Kelbaugh, 17, was reported missing from her home in Phoenix, Arizona after leaving on December 1, 2023 and not returning. She is described as female, 5 feet 6 inches tall, about 214 pounds, with blonde or strawberry-blonde hair and hazel eyes. The Phoenix Police Department opened a missing person case that day.

Nothing has been disclosed about what she was wearing, whether she took belongings, or why she left, and no significant new leads have been reported. The family’s uncertainty continues as the search yields little additional information.

If anyone saw Dilon on or after December 1, 2023, or has information about where she might have gone, please contact the Phoenix Police Department.
