Missing Utah Teen Alisa Petrov Found Safe Over 500 Miles Away In Colorado
Fifteen-year-old Alisa Petrov from South Jordan, Utah, was found safe on June 1, 2025, after walking into a police station in Colorado Springs and identifying herself. She had been missing since April 21, when she left her school and was later seen taking a train to Provo.
Police believe Alisa had been using social media to connect with strangers and labeled her as an endangered runaway. Multiple arrests were made during the investigation, including men from Florida, Texas, and Utah, all charged with offenses related to communication with a minor. However, none are directly charged with causing her disappearance.
Alisa’s parents expressed gratitude online, thanking law enforcement, community members, and support organizations for their help during the nearly six-week search.
