Newark School Principal Reported Missing
FRANKLIN TOWNSHIP, N.J. (CBSNewYork) -- A New Jersey principal was reported missing this week, just days before school was set to start.

Dyer had been scheduled for multiple meetings on Wednesday, for which she did not show up, police said.
A family friend was thus prompted to contact Dyer's sister about her whereabouts.
Dyer stands 5 feet 4 inches tall and drives a white 2011 Toyota 4Runner with New Jersey plates U79GXM.
