Missing Hall County girl makes contact with mother

HALL COUNTY, Ga. - The Hall County Sheriff's Office said a missing 12-year-old girl made contact with her mother over the weekend. 

According to deputies, Brooklyn Smith called her mom and told her she was safe with friends. However, investigators believe she may be with her biological father. 

The Georgia Bureau of Investigation issues a Levi's Call on Friday. Authorities said she was possibly in extreme danger. 

Brooklyn was last seen near her home in the 2900 block of Lullwater Trail by her mother getting into a black or dark colored passenger car, possibly an early model Ford Taurus. That was around 2:30 a.m. Friday.

“I screamed after her and then noticed there was a car up into my driveway and the next thing I heard was the car door shutting and the car screeching off,” said Mrs. Smith.

Smith said she was sleeping on the couch early Wednesday morning when she woke up to a noise of Brooklyn stepping outside their home. She then saw her hop into a black sedan.

“I’m scared; I’m terrified for my daughter and her safety. I just need her home and I need anyone to help me that can,” said Selena Smith.

Smith reported the incident to the Hall County Sheriff's Office who put out a news release about a missing child at risk. Then just before 6 p.m. Friday, the Georgia Bureau of Investigation posted a Levi's Call for Brooklyn.

Brooklyn is described as being 5 feet, 2 inches tall and weighing about 100 pounds with long brown hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a white t-shirt and blue jeans.

Authorities believe she may be in the company of 31-year-old Steven Spires. Police describe him as being 5 feet, 6 inches tall and weighing 142 pounds with blue eyes and short brown hair. A photo of Spires has not yet been provided. Selena Smith said Spires is Brooklyn's biological father, who she says he recently lost custody rights in court.

“Brooklyn I love you and I need you to come home where I know you're safe,” said Smith.

Anyone who sees her is asked to call 911.
