Beverly was 10 years-old, she had gone to Halloran Park (between West 117th and 120th) with a friend to see the show at 7 pm. Her friend had to be home by dark, and so left at 8:40 pm leaving Beverly to find a way home on her own. They had left their bikes at Beverly's house. A 13 year-old fellow student thought they saw her leaving the park after the show let out at 9:30 pm. By 10:30 pm her parents had called the police.
