Candlelight Vigil Held For Missing Teen

DENVER (CBS4) - It's been more than three weeks since a Denver woman vanished after leaving a downtown nightclub. Kenia Monge's family says they still believe she is out there and that she will come home safely.

Monge vanished after an evening at a LoDo nightclub with friends.

An arrest affidavit says Monge was picked up from the club by a stranger and dropped off at a downtown gas station around 3 a.m. Where she went from there is a mystery. Her stepfather, Tony Lee,  says someone knows where she is.

"They have the answer to this. All they've got to do is make a damn phone call and we haven't gotten that phone call yet, and until that phone call comes, we've got to keep looking," Lee said.

Family and friends held a candlelight vigil Friday night. Gatherers said they were hoping to light Monge's way back home.
