A 16 year old Helena girl Deanna Niven was been missing since Sunday evening, April 12, 2009 in Alabaster, AL. Deanna Niven was last seen at the Alabaster Walmart where she left at approximately 6:30 pm. When DeAnna did not return home and her parents could not contact her, they began searching for their daughter. When they arrived at the Walmart her family discovered Deanna’s van with her cell phone inside.
Police are currently looking for a vehicle in connection with the disappearance of 
Deanna Niven. There is reason to believe Deanna could have left in an older model silver Dodge Caravan.
Through images captured on surveillance video it is believed that Deanna Niven possibly willingly entered a van of another individual in the parking lot. The man in the vehicle appeared to be a man in his 20’s.
It’s believed that other individual is a man in his 20′s. Surveillance video shows what is believed to be either a silver 1996 to 2000 Plymouth Voyager or a 1995 to 2008 Chrysler Town and Country or Dodge Caravan. There are still a lot of unanswered questions, but Lt. Anthony says police are focusing on just one right now, “what’s most important right now is we find her and make sure that she is safe.”
