Authorities and family members are seeking public assistance in locating a 15-year-old girl who disappeared from her home in Purok 3, San Agustin 1, Naujan, Oriental Mindoro.

Samantha Louisse de Guzman was last seen on Friday morning when she told her aunt she was going to take a bath before eating.

The teenager had not eaten since Thursday night after returning from an outing with her grandmother and siblings, according to her aunt Lorife de Guzman, in a Facebook post.

According to the family, witnesses reported seeing the minor at a street corner near a 7-Eleven store on the road to Calapan, accompanied by four women before boarding a white Montero vehicle.

The teenager’s father has been reportedly distraught since her disappearance.

Lorife de Guzman said the girl left without any personal belongings, money, or mobile phone.

“She’s still a child. She can’t take care of herself yet,” the aunt said.

The family has requested anyone with information to immediately contact them at 09153969049 or report to the barangay or police station.
