Gorgeous Coed FAKES KIDNAP to Avoid Admitting SHE WON’T GRADUATE ON TIME

Graduation was just a few days away for a 23-year-old Pennsylvania coed when she vanished.

Chloe Stein was last seen leaving her job at a Sonic restaurant in Hempfield Township. Her boyfriend received a text that night saying she was being pulled over, but she wasn’t seen or heard from again. Police issued a Missing Endangered Person Advisory for her.

Two days later State Police received a tip that Stein was at a home in Jeannette. She was found safe. She told police that she was abducted at gunpoint by a man in a mask and was later released.

It wasn't long before Stein admitted that she made it up, because she didn't want to admit that she wasn't graduating and in fact hadn't been going to school at all.
