Portland Police Bureau Missing Persons Detectives have been working with North Precinct officers and the Clark County Sheriff’s Office to locate 13-year-old Ayla Venable. Ayla was last seen at about 1:00 p.m. Friday after her mother and two siblings dropped her off outside the Lloyd Center Mall, to meet up with a male subject Ayla had met on an internet website.
Ayla was supposed to meet her family back at the mall at 3:00 p.m., but has not been seen or heard from since. She and the male subject were last seen, on foot, at the east end of the mall, outside Sears. They may have walked towards Holladay Park, but their destination was unknown.

According to the Clark County Sheriff’s Office, Ayla Venable was seen leaving the Lloyd Center Mall are with a boy identified as 15 year-old Tremane Jarrod Salazar. He is considered to be a juvenile runaway out of Portland.
Police suspect that she might be a runaway; however, her family state that she has never done so in the past.
Let’s get this correct … with all the issues of teens meeting individuals that they met on the Internet and all the terrible circumstances like kidnappings, assaults, rape and murder that have arisen … the girls mother actually dropped her off at a Mall to meet a total stranger and left her there unaccompanied. WTF!!! Is she INSANE!!!

Just because a woman can create a child, does not equate to knowing how to take care of it.
Any so called mother who drops a teenager at a mall to meet a stranger is like you said “insane”.
Ages twelve through seventeen are years of hormone thinking for all young people. Most have at least one parent with enough brain power to help keep them safe. Not so with this parent.
