A $20,000 reward is being offered for information on the disappearance of a teenage girl last seen in Gary, Indiana, last August.

Ja'Niyah McMichael, now 14, was reported missing by her mother on Aug. 12 from their home in the 1900 block of Malcolm X Boulevard. A balloon release was held Monday evening for Ja'Niyah.

Investigators believe she may be the victim of foul play, and the search for her remains active.
