19 Lea Chali Porter Missing Since 6/5/14 in Westminster, CO (Update: Arrest Made in the Disappearance of Lea Chali Porter)

19 year old Lea Chali Porter has been missing since June 5, 2014 in Westminster, Colorado. The missing 19 year old lives in Pueblo County, CO but was visiting friends in the Westminster area when she disappeared. As reported at the Denver Post, Family members say Porter was distraught about her boyfriend leaving town so she went to the friend’s apartment, Christopher Waide, and then she disappeared. There have been no phone calls, emails or updates on social media. Lea Porter is 5-foot-5 inches tall and weighs 90 pounds with brown hair dyed blond and brown eyes, has a tattoo on her right wrist and a piercing in her lower lip.

Authorities say June 5 was the last time any family member spoke with Lea Chali Porter. Her family told sister station KCNC that Porter was distraught over her boyfriend leaving town, and went to a friend’s apartment in Westminster. She hasn’t been seen or heard from since. Her car was left at the apartment complex parking lot; her personal belongings were gone. It’s the only lead police have so far.

Police have been talking with Porter’s friend, and say he’s been cooperative with the investigation. No one has been named a suspect or person of interest at this point.

Westminster police told KCNC that Porter doesn’t have a history of disappearing, and that with that in mind, her case has become a priority.
