South Milwaukee Police Search For 15 Year Old With Rare Genetic Disorder

Updated: Kayla was found later Tuesday evening near 105th and Hampton Avenue in Milwaukee. See the updated release here.

Police are searching for a 15-year-old South Milwauke High School student who went missing from school this morning.

But Kayla Sirovina is not a typical runaway.

From the press release:

Sirovina suffers from a rare genetic disorder called Prader-Willi Syndrome. The disorder does not allow her to control her hunger.  Unsupervised, she will eat until her stomach ruptures.

She is 5-foot-2, 144 pounds with brown or hazel hair and was last seen wearing a hooded jacket, blue jeans and white, pink and silver tennis shooes. If you see here, please call police at 768-8060.

I’ll keep you posted on this story as I hear more.
