The San Antonio Police Department is actively searching for a missing 15-year-old girl, Araseli Delgado, who vanished nearly two weeks ago on the city's west side. Delgado was last seen on March 27 on the 1000 block of Flame Tanager, near the intersection of Marbach and Loop 410. Details from KENS 5 specify the missing teen at 5-foot-1, around 100 pounds, with brown eyes and brown, shoulder-length hair. The exact apparel she was donning at the time of her disappearance remains unknown.
Authorities have issued a warning that providing shelter to a runaway is a criminal offense in the state of Texas. Under the law, harboring a runaway child could lead to charges of a Class A misdemeanor, potentially resulting in up to a year in jail and fines up to $4,000. These details emerge as the San Antonio community and law enforcement increase their efforts in locating the missing teen.
Concerned parties and anyone with information regarding the whereabouts of Araseli Delgado are encouraged to come forward. The police have made an urgent appeal to the public for assistance. The San Antonio Police Department's Missing Persons Unit can be reached at the direct line at (210) 207-7660.
