Woman and her two young children missing
Hooper is armed –
WDHN-TV reports that she took two handguns prior to disappearing – and she may be a threat to herself or her sons, according to WTVY-TV, citing the local police chief. Hollister has multiple sclerosis, which can cause anxiety and depression, and those factors may impair her judgment,
WBMA-TV reports.
Kadance Hooper may have disconnected her phone, which hampers the ability of law enforcement to track it, according to WDHN-TV. She is believed to be driving a white 2017 Nissan Rogue with license plate NYD337.
“If you see this person or vehicle, immediately call 911 and provide authorities with as much information as possible, particularly regarding descriptions and direction of travel,”
an alert from the Alabama Law Enforcement Agency reads.
Tipsters can also call the New Brockton Police Department at
