Austin, Texas police are searching for 9-year-old Ava Marie Gonzales, who went missing in 2017; her 7-year-old sister was recently found malnourished and locked in a closet. The mother, Virginia Gonzales, was arrested for serious injury to a child, as investigators revealed Ava was never reported missing and they are concerned for her safety. Authorities are urging the public for information on Ava’s whereabouts, and police discovered other children in the home who appeared healthy but were not enrolled in school.
