One year after Plant City native Misti Whitfield disappeared, her family will host a candlelight vigil.
The vigil will take place at 4 p.m. Saturday, May 10, at McCall Park, 100 N. Collins St., Historic Downtown Plant City.
Whitfield was last seen May 2, 2013, near Nautical Marine, 5525 W. Hillsborough Ave. It is unlike the 36-year-old mother of five to disappear without checking in with her family. Although the case is still classified as a missing person case and detectives have no evidence of a crime at this point , as more time passes, the family and detectives are growing more concerned.
Tampa Police Department Det. Scott Bullard, as well as members of Whitfield’s family, will make statements at the vigil.
Anyone with information about this case should call the Tampa Police Department, (813) 231-6130. Anonymous tips can be made through Crime Stoppers, 1-800-873-TIPS.
