No other sightings have been reported, and where the teen went to and what happened to her remains a mystery.

Family, friends, and concerned strangers have held searches from Cedar Springs to Rockford.

Investigators tell FOX 17 the images from the Corner Bar are not being made public because the footage is in infrared.

Wise is five feet tall, weighing around 120 pounds with blond hair and braces.

A $1,000 reward is being offered for tips that lead to her location.
