INDIANAPOLIS — The Marion County Coroner's Office confirmed a 20-year-old woman is dead.

Shortly before 7 p.m. on Friday, April 5, IMPD asked for the public's help in locating Aaliyah Paff, who was reportedly last seen Thursday, April 4 in the 2500 block of Beechcrest Drive, near East Raymond Street and South Sherman Drive on the city's southeast side.

Monday morning, the coroner's office confirmed Paff died Sunday, April 7 at Sidney & Lois Eskenazi Hospital.

IMPD said there is no foul play suspected in Paff's death. The coroner's office will determine her manner and cause of death.

Amber Alert vs. Silver Alert: What's the difference?  

There are specific standards a person's disappearance must meet in order for police to declare an Amber Alert or a Silver Alert.                                        

Amber Alerts are for children under the age of 18 who are believed to have been abducted and in danger. Police also need to have information about a suspect and their car to issue an Amber Alert.

Silver Alerts are for missing and endangered adults or children. They are much more common for missing people. It was not until last year when the standards for Silver Alerts were expanded to include children.      

In both situations, these alerts must be issued by police.
