This Monday afternoon Police are still looking for a missing 12-year-old girl from Clayton, NJ. Autumn Pasquale was last seen at her home on W. High Street around 12:30 pm Saturday riding her Odyssey BMX bike. She was headed towards a friend's house. The last contact with her was made via text message on Saturday at 2:27 pm with her mother, about 48 hours ago.

She's described as 5-foot-2 and weighing 120 pounds with blue eyes and blonde hair. She was last seen wearing navy blue shorts underneath navy blue sweatpants, a yellow t-shirt with the words "Clayton Soccer" on front, bright blue high-top sneakers and a silver or light grey Cinch backpack with the word "Reckless" printed across the back.

Autumn was reported missing at 9:30 Saturday night. Hundreds of family, friends, and authorities have began searching the surrounding areas of Clayton, NJ. Bloodhounds searched the woods near Scotland Run Park on Sunday where she may have been seen. They also searched the area near where her last cell phone location was in Williamstown before it was turned off or ran out of battery.

The FBI has now joined the search effort, as well as numerous local and state agencies. The Gloucester County's Procecuter's office had coordinated a Child Abduction Response Team initially. They have conducted over 75 interviews with friends, relatives, and anyone who may have seen Autumn. Authorities have also canvased registered sex offenders in the surrounding areas. They've begun looking through available surveillance footage from the town's residences and businesses.

They do not have any current leads or persons of interest, but will continue to turn over every stone.

Just announced at a 2pm press conference, a $10000 reward is now being offered for information that leads to finding Autumn.

UPDATE 10/22 11 pm: No more information or leads in the disappearance of Autumn. The community gathered tonight for a candle light vigil.

UPDATE 10/23 8 am: A body of a girl has been found and confirmed to be Autumn Pasquale. She was found last night at 10 pm in a recycling container on E. Clayton Street about a half mile from her home. FBI and State police are investigating the scene. There are currently no persons of interests. This is now a criminal investigation.
