Bianca Lebron was last seen at approximately 8:30 a.m. on November 7, 2001 in front of her school, Elias Howe School, on Clinton Avenue in Bridgeport, Connecticut. She was standing outside with some friends when a two-tone brown and tan van approached the group of children. Bianca allegedly told two of her friends and her teacher that she was going to the shopping mall with her "uncle" before getting into the van. Bianca does not have an uncle and none of her relatives owned a vehicle similar to the van involved in her abduction. Bianca's teacher and classmates provided police with a description of the van and the driver. He is described as an Hispanic male, approximately 20-30 years old, 5'8"-5'11" with an average build, black hair styled in an afro with long sideburns, brown eyes, a prominent nose and scratches on both of his cheeks. He was wearing a long-sleeved blue pullover shirt with Gap imprinted on the front and along the right sleeve, Fubu jeans with an image of the cartoon character Fat Albert on the right rear pocket and scruffed brown Timberland boots. The van was an older model vehicle with several sanded areas, tinted windows and chrome trim on its sides. Bianca was declared legally dead by her family for the purposes of the lawsuit they filed against the city and school district. It alleges the carelessness of the school's employees led to Bianca's death. The city settled agreeing to pay $750,000 in 2008.
