My other thought was, I noticed on Google Maps a Casey's nearby, which has gas. I wonder if she stopped to fuel up her tank and something happened there. I'm assuming LE is investigating all nearby businesses that might have cameras, which most gas stations and convenience stores do. It might be near enough the bowling alley that would account for her device pinging "in the area." However, I would think that early evening on a Monday at a gas station nearby several businesses would be a very conspicuous place to abduct someone, so I still am leaning towards the bowling alley parking lot MOO.
I feel the same way.Whenever someone goes missing with their car and there’s water nearby I get a very bad feeling…I know they said they surveyed the bodies of water but I wonder how throughly? Hoping I’m wrong, of course![]()

Thanks for sharing the photo/info regarding the car. I was curious and live nearby, so I can keep an eye out for that.![]()

Brissa Romero disappearance: Police release new details in search for missing Carpentersville teen
Desperate for answers, friends and family members continue to search for a missing Carpentersville teen who was last seen on Monday.www.fox32chicago.com
********
Now Brissa’s phone is off, her car is gone, and police are revealing that a dive into her social media accounts shows no outgoing activity since Monday.
********
Still, police say she never made it to her next stop.
"Even her friends that she told she was 2 minutes away, they never saw her," said Dulce Romero.
********
Police also say there is a sticker to the right of the teen’s rear license plate that depicts the outline of a black cartoon coyote.

A student at Harper College, Brissa is studying to be a sonogram nurse – working two jobs to pay for school.

Oh now that's very interesting. I wonder if the phone pinged around that area too or if closer to Bowlero. I would guess she continued down Milwaukee Ave. I would have to think Milwaukee and Townline/60, a major intersection, would have cameras. The Lake County Passage site indicates there are, as well as many other cameras in the area, however that doesn't mean the footage is saved/they have license plate readers, etc. Lake County PASSAGE Live Traffic![]()
Body pulled from Chicago area pond identified as missing teen Brissa Romero
Brissa Romero had been missing since Dec. 4. Her car was pulled out of the same pond on Monday.www.cbsnews.com
Desperate but determined, Brissa's friends and family braved the elements Sunday, holding a vigil at the intersection of Route 45 and Milwaukee Avenue in Vernon Hills – the last known location where police said her SUV was spotted by traffic cameras.

That's a very good question. If she went to the other, the search radius could be way off.It looks like that's almost equidistant (as the crow flies) between 2 Bowlero locations. Could she have mistakenly been heading to the other one? Has that location/route been searched too?

I've been following along quietly. IMHO, I thought Brissa could have ended up in the water. Sadly, she could of been using her phone and not paying attention. I would of thought LE would have searched the ponds extensively in that area from the very beginning.This is the pond they are searching. I don’t believe it’s the one directly off of 21 . It’s at the intersection of Executive Pkwy and Lakeview. There is a stop sign at that intersection. Not super easy to just drive into. Do we know if her phone pinged at Bowlero? Lots of traffic in that area all the time. Someone would have had to have seen her drive in . I don’t think that’s what happened..
