WITI-TV, HARTLAND -
A college student from Hartland who has been missing for days after the earthquake, is back in Wisconsin. Missy Elliot was on a humanitarian mission with fellow students from Lynn University when the earthquake hit.
Elliot was on a humanitarian mission when the hotel she was staying in collapsed. At first she thought a bomb had gone off, but then she walked around the streets and saw the devastation. She is bruised, but considers herself lucky. Six members of her school group are still missing. Elliot says, "It replays in my mind, every second, but right now I'm just trying to be strong and focus all of our effort on bringing the rest of the group back safely...People need to continue to help. Haiti was horrible before this happened and it's even worse now. Anything that anyone can do will help."
The US Embassy got Elliot and her school group on a military plane to the Dominican Republic and a woman in Florida paid for a private plane to bring them back to Lynn University.
