The Baltimore County Police Department is asking for the community's assistance in locating a 16-year-old girl last seen in the Dundalk area.
Nyaira Sherri McMillion, 16, has been missing since Aug. 17, when she was last seen at her grandmother's Dundalk home, according to a statement from the police department.
McMillion is a black female, 5-foot-3, about 162 pounds, and has black hair and brown eyes. She was last seen wearing a white and pink striped blouse, capri jeans of an unknown color and silver strapped sandals.
The teenager is known to frequent the Hillendale and Dundalk areas.
Since her disappearance on Aug. 17, McMillion has not been heard from, including through social networks. She has never been reported missing before, and there is concern she may have gone to meet someone she met online, officials said in the statement.
Anyone with information about Nyaira McMillion should call Baltimore County police at 410-307-2020.
Without the assistance of the public, the police can only do so much. They depend on gathering the right information in every case.
