2 Unnamed, Unphotographed Teen girls - Marshville/ Charlotte NC

Poster's Note: I am tempted to create a new room for this story- "Stupid Parents".

How in the name of the Almighty are we supposed to find two children with such generic descriptions, no names and no pictures??? Helloooo McFly! Earth to parents Earth to parents...Come in parents, over.

Police in the eastern Union County town of Marshville are continuing to search this morning for two teen-age girls who have been missing since Tuesday afternoon.

The girls are students at East Union Middle School, and they haven't been seen since they left school. Marshville police say the girls normally take the bus home but decided to walk Tuesday.

The girls' names have not been released, by request of their parents, but police have issued a description.

Each girl is white, and they were wearing school uniforms -- khaki pants and blue sweatshirts. One girl is 5 feet 8 with blond hair. She wears glasses. The other girl is 5 feet 7 with brown hair.

No photos have been made available of the missing girls.

Police say they have received conflicting information on which way the girls were walking when they left. The search has been concentrated around the school, which is on U.S. 74 on the west side of Marshville.

Anyone with information in the case is asked to call Marshville police, at 704-624-2121.

Two local teens who were reported missing after walking away from their middle school in Union County on Tuesday afternoon were found safe in South Carolina Wednesday.

Marshville Mayor Frank Deese said the girls were found walking along the railroad tracks near Peachland, SC. Both girls are with Marshville Police and are being returned to their parents. Both girls are just hungry and tired they walked the entire way down there.

Police in Marshville say the two girls, Courtney Carpenter and Hayley Miller, got in trouble at East Union Middle School earlier that day.

Instead of boarding the school bus, the pair walked away from campus around 3:30 p.m., police told WBTV. Officers believe the girls were upset about getting into trouble and didn't want to go home right away.
