UPDATE: Officials are now reporting that Jayme Closs has been found alive. More details below.
A trucking company has joined in the effort to find Jayme Closs, the 13-year-old girl who went missing on October 15th.
Karl’s Transport, a WI-based carrier, teamed up with a graphics company to get a rolling billboard put on the side of one of their trailers. The trailer wrap has two pictures of Jayme, identifying information, as well as contact info for law enforcement leading the investigation.
Jayme Closs went missing after her parents were found murdered in their home in October of last year. The investigation into her disappearance and her parents’ murder is still ongoing.
