Police are investigating Smith’s disappearance and say her phone, which is no longer charged, pinged on Rainbow Drive in Decatur, which is more than 17 miles from her school.

They shared an image from a doorbell camera that shows Smith wearing what she was last seen in: khaki pants, a white sweatshirt with pink writing, pink Nike shoes and a pink handbag.
