This is not the only search for a missing teen that South Bend police have conducted in recent months. In September, the department asked for help locating 14-year-old Lilyana Banfield, who the same department said was last seen near the Youth Service Bureau on the city's east side, believed to be wearing a gray hoodie, dark leggings, and black-and-white Nike shoes, as reported by WSBT. That case was resolved after Banfield was located by police, the station reported.

In a separate case, the station reported that 13-year-old Jordan Murillo had been reported missing and was last seen on the west side of South Bend.
