Updated:

The first Amber Alert used in the state of Vermont was activated Thursday afternoon in the case of a missing 12-year old girl.  Brooke Bennett was last seen Wednesday morning at a convenience store in Randolph.    

An uncle and cousin dropped the girl off for a pre-arranged meeting with a friend.  Bennett told her family she was going to Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center to visit the friend's relative.  Police now suspect that was a lie. 

Fox 44 News has learned the Vermont State Police Computer Crime Unit is examining Bennett's computer to determine the identity of the person she was communicating with via the internet. 

Right now, State Police along with K-9 teams and the State Police Search and Rescue Team are searching for the Braintree, Vermont girl.  Items of clothing belonging to Bennett have been found.  The clothes have been sent to the Vermont Forensic Labratory for testing.

Vermont State Police describe the search as active and aggressive.   Bennett is 5' 03" and weighs 98 pounds.  She has brown hair with purple highlights and blue eyes.  She was wearing blue jeans, a pink sweater and white sneakers with pink lettering.  If anyone has seen her or has any information , call the Vermont State Police at (802) 234-9933.
