What We Know So Far About Majesta High Bear's Disappearance

For a girl her age, officials with the Pennington County Sheriff's Office and officers with the Rapid City Police Department emphasized that this could have turned into a dangerous situation. Details on how or why Majesta High Bear disappeared remains unclear. Here's the general idea of Majesta's description from the South Dakota Missing Persons website when it was listed:

  • Race: Native American
  • Eyes: Brown
  • Hair: Brown
  • Height: 5'9''
  • Weight: Around 127 pounds.

Some posts about Majesta from concerned family and friends were circling social media.

If you know where Majesta is, make the call. If you've seen her, make the call. If someone showed you her photo and something felt wrong — make the call. "Millions Strong. One Mission." — and right now that mission has Majesta's name on it.

No matter what the circumstances are, it's always scary when a loved one goes missing. Imagine if you were Majesta's family...wouldn't you do anything to bring your child home safely?

Majesta, no matter what happened South Dakota is glad to hear that you are safe.
