Two mentally handicapped teenagers are still
missing after a weekend search turned up nothing when firefighters and
emergency search crews looked for the pair in the Indian Mountain Lakes
community at the border between Monroe and Carbon counties.
Crews are no longer searching the area for the teens but they are still
classified as missing, according to state police at Fern Ridge.
Charles Ray Lockard, 18, and Donna Marie Kiernan, 19, were reported missing on
Friday afternoon from a home on Lenape Trail in the Carbon County

Emergency crews searched door to door over the weekend and used search dogs to
try to locate the teens, according to the Penn Forest Volunteer Fire
Company.
They are described as mentally handicapped with a sixth-grade mental capacity and the disappearance is
being treated as a runaway situation, according to Sarah Zappola at the
fire company.

He was last seen wearing a black hat with a skull on the side, a green

sneakers and a gray hooded sweatshirt with "West Coast Choppers"
printed on it.
