A 14-year-old Michigan girl who was found murdered last week reportedly texted her boyfriend just before her death.
“Omg… I think I’m being kidnapped,” was the text April Millsap’s boyfriend received from her phone the night she was killed last Thursday, the Detroit Free Press reports. Millsap, who was due to start high school in the fall, was found dead by the side of the road, hours after she had left her home in Armada, Michigan, to walk the family dog. A couple found her body later that night, guarded by the collie, named “Penny.” An autopsy report confirmed that April was murdered, but authorities declined to say how, specifying only that she was not shot or stabbed.
Police have interviewed Millsap’s parents and boyfriend, but said they are “not considered suspects in her death.”
