These locations are almost 3 miles apart and a walk going through very active parts of town and over the LA River. Why was essentially a 6 year old allowed to make this trip alone? According to this link she has experience using the bus https://mynewsla.com/crime/2017/09/...lly-disabled-girl-missing-in-lincoln-heights/

This makes more sense as there is a stop a block away from her house on Mission that runs every 9 minutes and would take her via Broadway into Chinatown and let her off on Ord St near her father's shop. There should be plentyof video footage of her if she indeed made this trip, and I hope they get it quick because unless she met with someone nefarious on the bus, there is so little room for something to go wrong it makes my nose itch a little.

All good questions, Vail. It's been 2 days. I'm sure she's very scared, wherever she is.
