Last-seen location: North Hollywood, California

The NamUs description for this missing person sounds like she is being treated as a runaway: "Aaliyah was last seen on January 24, 2020 at home in North Hollywood, California. She left the home and has not returned."

My research into this case produced a suggestion that this individual may have been found. Websleuths or amateur investigators should be careful in putting too much time into this case until this is clarified. I will query the status of this case with NamUs staff and update accordingly. However, for the time being I did find a photo for this alleged MP.

Yes she was found. Tragic story, but she's healing.

PLEASE share this photo far and wide. This is Aaliyah Mason. She has been missing from a park in Studio City, CA for over 24 hours. Her mother is a dear friend and #CSUN family. If seen please call 911 and the number on the flier. #missingchild pic.twitter.com/gWpeZcNM9o
