SACRAMENTO (CBS13) - Police are asking for help in finding two at-risk missing seven-year-olds who walked away from school Friday morning.
Sacramento police say Ella Warren and Janessa Pendarvis were last seen around 9 a.m. Their school is at the corner of 36th Avenue and 61st Street, near Stockton Boulevard and Fruitridge Road.
Ella was wearing a black and white, panda-style jacket with earmuffs and Janessa was wearing a green and yellow jacket with braided hair.
Police say the girls are best friends and apparently decided to just walk away together.
The two are considered at-risk due to their age.
