12 year old Jasmine Baker has been missing since Tuesday, November 11, 2014 in Nottingham, Maryland. The 12 year old missing girl was last seen on Tuesday morning at about 7:30 when she left her home in the 4200 block of Soth Avenue and walking toward Perry Hall Middle School. According to accounts, the walk is a very short distance from Jasmine’s home to school; however, she never made it to the school. Jasmine’s mom, Tina Baker, said called the school when her daughter didn’t come home after school. The school stated, Jasmine was absent that day. WHAT? Do you mean in this day and age all schools do not call parents when a child is absent? This is a middle school.
Jasmine was last seen wearing blue jeans and a brown jacket. She is 5 feet 5 inches tall, about 175 pounds with blue eyes and long brown hair that has red and blonde streaks. The incident is being investigated by the Baltimore County Police Crimes Against Children Unit.
