BUFFALO, N.Y. — Family and friends of a missing Buffalo State student are hoping that she is found safely.

Saniyya Dennis, 19, has been missing since Saturday night. She was last seen leaving her residence hall on campus.

"I'm very concerned about Saniyya," said Saniyya's mom, Latisha Dennis.

Saniyya is a sophomore, an honor and engineering student from the Bronx. Her parents traveled to Buffalo to search for their daughter, who they say they haven't heard from in six days.

"We just want our daughter back. We love her and miss her very much, and this is really hard," Latisha said.

An elevator surveillance picture shows the last time she was seen – Saturday around 11 p.m., leaving her dorm room in Bishop Hall. Saniyya's mom says she talked to her the previous day.

"She's more of a home body, and if she was to go out, it was a big event going on, she would be happy to share it. She often shared things with me that she was doing, so I have no idea where she was going," Latisha said. "It was reported that she hadn’t shown up to work, and she didn’t show up to class, and she’s not like that. She’s very studious."


40 Cal’s daughter, Saniyya Dennis, has been missing for almost a week, and now the Harlem rapper is asking for help in finding her.

“My daughter Saniyya is missing out of Buffalo State College,” he wrote on Instagram recently. “Anyone with any helpful info hit my dm , any other matters respectfully don’t contact me!, $10,000 for any info that connect.”

Dennis went missing from SUNY Buffalo State College on April 24 at around 11 p.m. and was last seen leaving her campus dorm. “I’m very concerned about Saniyya,” her mom, Latisha Dennis, told WGRZ-TV. “We just want our daughter back. We love her and miss her very much, and this is really hard.”

When speaking with the news outlet, 40 Cal also offered the reward. “I’m offering a reward out of my own money, $10,000, $20,000, whatever. I swear I’ll pay, just give details. You don’t even have to tell your name, just details that connect. I swear I’ll pay you, I just want to get my daughter back, that’s it.” he said.

A native of the Bronx, Saniyya is in her sophomore year, where she’s studying engineering and is an honor student. Surveillance footage from an elevator in her residence hall shows that she was last seen on Saturday, and police say they have information about “which way she left campus, but that hasn’t led to any substantive leads,” per WGRZ.
However, because of COVID-19 guidelines, students live alone, without roommates, so her friends didn’t know where Saniyya was headed. According to police, the way she left her dorm wasn’t suspicious, and there’s nothing to suggest that this is a criminal investigation.

"Try again"? You mean, she couldn't call her back right then and there? ugh............
 
Why would she go somewhere like that at that time of night? Assuming it pinged at night that is... If she was on the island itself most definitely odd. It has no residents and is on the US Canadian border. It has view points a cave, etc., mostly wooded with foot trails. The cave has an elevator that goes to the bottom of the falls.

If in the Niagara Falls State Park I would say the same. I guess if just in the area she could be somewhere, a restaurant, a home, etc.

Has anyone checked on her passport? There are Covid rules though I imagine. They mention the secret service involved. Not sure I understand that.

Her dad said they would have had cell phone subpoena and records for someone else immediately. I don't agree with him, she is an adult and she walked out, they can't access her private records that easily or fast generally. I totally get his upset and fear though.

They all are really down on all the people/agencies involved. I don't think it is all entirely fair. I will be the first to admit though nothing moves at the pace one would hope, ever.
