The family of a teenage girl who has been missing since Wednesday is offering a reward for information as they continue to search for her.

Nekita Leiba, 17, was last seen Wednesday afternoon. Her school bus dropped her off in the 6800 block of Southwest 34th Avenue in Miramar, near where her mother, Sharon Leiba, works as a teacher. Sharon Leiba was delayed for a few minutes, and Nekita told her she would walk.

When Sharon Leiba called to check up on her daughter at about 4 p.m., the call dropped. Her mother kept trying to call her back.

“Did it again, nothing. Did it again, nothing. That was the last time I heard from my baby,” Leiba said.

No one has seen or heard from Nekita Leiba since that afternoon.

“No texts, no tweets, nothing – it’s like she just fell off the face of the earth,” Leiba said.

On Monday, the search moved to the area of Pembroke Road and 52nd Avenue in Hollywood, the last spot where her cellphone was tracked.

The teen's parents are adamant that Nekita, an honor student, didn't just walk away.

"She's not this runaway that the first impression was," Sharon Leiba said. "I just want to bring awareness to the public that this is a child that is abducted. This is a child that’s being held against her will."
Fliers have been posted in restaurants, tax offices and on the Leiba family car, and an Internet radio show spoke about the missing teen.

Nekita Leiba's parents joined volunteers Monday morning to hand out fliers on Pembroke Road.

Nekita Leiba is 5 feet 2 inches tall and about 135 pounds. She was last seen wearing a short-sleeved red shirt from Abercrombie & Fitch and blue jeans.

In addition to the $1,000 Crime Stoppers reward, Nekita Leiba's family is offering an additional $2,000 reward for information.
