New, additional info:

Police seek man, 34, who left with Northwest Arkansas teenage girl

"Authorities said a Northwest Arkansas teenager was last seen with a 34-year-old man when she went missing this week, prompting police to file an arrest warrant for the man Wednesday as they continued their search.

The Bella Vista Police Department said 15-year-old HA was last seen walking with Derrick Cobler Monday night near Charlie and Willie George Park in Springdale. . ." BBM

This is new info, because in Post #1, it said last seen around 5 pm. Sunday (June 16) on Abingdon Lane in Bella Vista. So this new sighting is one day later, and about 30 miles south.

I hope that HA will be found soon, and that Derrick will soon be in police custody!

... Police allege he left with HA and drove a midnight blue Mercedes-Benz.

Police filed a warrant for his arrest but declined to say what criminal charges he's wanted for.

Bella Vista police Lt. Byron Stival said Cobler previously dated HA’s sister.

HA had been wearing a blue shirt and black leggings. Authorities describe her as being just over 5 feet tall and weighing 115 pounds.

Several tipsters reported seeing her and Cobler's car at a park in Gravette and a Sonic restaurant there.

Authorities haven't issued an Amber Alert. ...

I added the location given by the "tipsters" from the news article to the map (just the Sonic, not the park, as they were both in the same town):

They are staying around Bella Vista--I was so surprised. I had thought he was going to continue to be travelling away from Bella Vista. I hope this will make it easier for LE to find HA quicker.
