Seventeen-year-old Khaliah Mcelroy disappeared from Buckeye, Arizona, on November 5, 2020. At about 2:30 p.m. she left home planning to spend time with friends but never returned. Her family described her failure to come back as out of character, and the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office opened an investigation.

Khaliah is a Black female with brown hair and brown eyes, 5 feet, 3 inches tall, and about 160 pounds. Public details say she had intended to meet friends that afternoon, but who she planned to see and the specifics of her movements that day have not been made public. The initial leads were sparse and the case remained open as weeks and months passed.

Anyone who knew Khaliah, her plans on November 5, 2020, or who may have seen her in Buckeye that afternoon is asked to contact the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office with information.
