WILDWOOD, NJ — The search continued on Tuesday for a teenage girl who was reported missing while vacationing at the Jersey Shore over the weekend. Trinity Christianson, 13, was reported missing Saturday night, according to Wildwood police.

On Tuesday, her father told NJ Advance Media that Christianson had boarded a bus from Wildwood to Philadelphia Monday night. A friend told Harry Christianson, who lives in Morristown, that his daughter was going to meet a teenage boy from Connecticut who she met online. The friend hadn’t seen Christianson since they got off the bus in Philadelphia, and she hasn’t returned phone calls and messages from her father.

Christianson, who reportedly lives in Florida with her mother, was visiting Wildwood with her father. She was last seen at about 6 p.m. on Saturday, July 22, when she left the home they were renting in Wildwood to visit the boardwalk. When she didn’t return from the boardwalk by 11 p.m., she was reported missing.

Christianson is described as 5 feet 2 inches and about 200 pounds. She was last seen wearing blue jean pants, a peach-colored sleeveless top and flip-flops. Her image, posted online by Wildwood police, is attached to this post.
