It was in the late-night hours

A neighbor noticed a fire in an apartment, and he immediately called the police.

Neighbor: We’ve kicked…We just kicked the door in, and we’re screaming for somebody …The upstairs is…We’re just calling for somebody to see if there’s somebody in the apartment.

Kenia Lived in Denver, Colorado

Kenia Monge was a nineteen-year-old girl from Denver, Colorado, USA.

On March 31st, 2011, the ambitious teen got ready for a girls' night out after a long week of working and studying.

Kenia’s sister, Kimberly, was impatient for Kenia to return home and fill her in on the gossip from the girls’ night.

But Kimberly never received any calls from Kenia the following day. Instead, Kenia’s boyfriend called her, asking if she had heard from Kenia.

Kenia’s boyfriend told Kimberly that Kenia didn’t return home the previous night. And Kenia’s friends, with whom she spent the previous night, also didn’t know where she was.

Kimberly told their mother, Maria Lee.
