WEST STEWARTSTOWN, N.H. -- "It's frustrating, it's frustrating because I don't know where she is, and I worry about her," said Adam Laro, Celina Cass’ father.

For the first time since the investigation began six days ago, Celina Cass's family is breaking their silence. Her father made a desperate and public plea for information.

"I said to my folks today, I have to say something. I can't duck behind this, this is my daughter, I've got to open my mouth. I'm hurting, and this bothers me," said Laro.

Adam Laro says just days ago, he was in a medically-induced coma. He's had heart issues his entire life. And it was in the hospital earlier this week he first learned his little girl was missing.

"I can't believe that she walked off. Somebody had to kidnap…that's the only thing I can see that's happened. She's not the type to just walk off from somewhere,” said Laro.

Investigators have been working around the clock looking for any clues surrounding Celina's sudden disappearance.

Officials on Sunday searched a pond near the home Celina was last seen in. While family friends continue a grass-roots effort to spread her picture.

Celina's father is hoping for her safe return.

"I told her on the news, that daddy will be here when you come home and I still will be," said Laro.



Celina's stepfather Wendell Noyes appears to have suffered some sort of medical issue. He was taken away in an ambulance.
