Mum issues desperate plea as chilling new surveillance footage of missing daughter, 14, is released

The mum of missing teenager Nyla Primeau has said she 'will never stop waiting' for her to return as police release new CCTV footage of the 14-year-old in a fresh update.

On August 19, Nyla Primeau went missing from Woodinville, Washington, US. She was last seen wearing a black hoodie, grey sweatpants and carrying a white backpack. The teen is described as 5ft5in tall, weighing around 130 pounds, with green eyes and dyed brown hair.

The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children released several images of Nyla; however, the King County Sheriff’s Office has since released an update on the investigation.

Authorities' latest lead comes from surveillance footage appearing to capture Nyla on camera four weeks after she went missing. The footage captures the 14-year-old with a black Fear of God Essentials hoodie, carrying a backpack. Nyla also appears to have several pimple stickers stuck on her face, while her hair appears to now be lighter in colour.

The surveillance footage is captured from a grocery store located on Capitol Hill in Seattle, prompting them to believe Nyla remains in the area.

Members of the public are being encouraged to share the new images captured from the surveillance footage in a bid to bring further attention to Nyla's case.

In a new statement, Nyla's mother, Rachel Primeau, said: "Nyla, you are so loved and missed, and I will never stop waiting for your return.

"You are irreplaceable and the only thing I think and pray about. I love you from the depths of my soul."

A month before she vanished from Woodinville, local reports state the teenager was also reported missing from Port Townsend in July. At the time, the reports said she may have been spotted around the greater Seattle area.
