According to police, Graceline went missing on May 30 as she was playing on rocks by the water off Roosevelt Island.

Officers were sent to the area of 688 Main St. that afternoon for a report of a teen in the water. Police sources told CBS News New York someone called 911 and said her friend went into the water and never came out. It was unclear if she fell or jumped into the water.
