WEST PALM BEACH, Fla. — Officials in Syracuse, Indiana, are searching for a missing teen they say has been missing for a week and may be in Palm Beach County.
Aaliyah Ramirez, 14, was last seen on April 27 at 8:01 a.m.
She is described as 5 foot 9 weighing 138 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Officials said she was last seen wearing a black zip-up jacket, gray and white sweatpants, and a purple Nike backpack.
According to authorities, Aaliyah may be heading to Marion, Indiana, or Palm Beach County.
A video from a doorbell camera captured images of Aaliyah minutes before her disappearance. Investigators said she was leaving home on her way to school and has never been heard from since.
"We just want to see her get home safely. If she ran away if someone took her, just let her get home safely,” said Aaliyah's ballet teacher, Hailey Toy.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office told WPTV deputies went to the teen's relative home but Aaliyah was not there.
A public discussion group was created on Facebook to help find Aaliyah.
Police said in an alert she is believed to be in danger.
Anyone with information about Aaliyah is urged to call the Syracuse Police Department at 574-267-5667 or 911.
