[Statesville.com] 9/23/2009, Mooresville, NC -- "Authorites are seeking information on the whereabouts of a father and his two young daughters after the girls did not show up at school Thursday."
"Matthew Charles Hess, 40, and his 12-year-old daughter Keara Lasha Hess and her 11-year-old sister, Sierra Nichole Hess have not been seen since approximately 9 p.m. Wednesday, said Lt. Julie Gibson of the Iredell County Sheriff's Office."
"Gibson said the girls' mother last saw them at 9 p.m. Wednesday when they went to bed in their home near Mooresville."
"On Thursday morning, a note from Hess was found, Gibson said. The note said the father left early to get some school supplies and he was taking the girls to school, she said."
"The children did not show up at school and have not been seen or heard from since."
"Gibson said it is believed they are with their father, and may be traveling in a tan or brown 1993 Ford Explorer, with the NC tag YTE8014. The right back passenger window is broken out and is covered with Plexiglass and duct taped in place."
"Gibson said there is a possibility he went to New York."
"Keara, Gibson said, is in need of an immediate medical procedure and her health may be at risk. She said Mr. Hess might not be aware of the seriousness of his daughter's condition."
"Gibson said no Amber Alert has been issued. This case does not meet Amber Alert criteria because the girls were not abducted, she said."
