The Aurora Police Department’s internet crime division asked for the public’s help Saturday finding a missing 16-year-old girl.

Lashaya Nae Stine was last seen 2:30 a.m. Friday, July 15 in the area of East Montview Boulevard and Peoria Street in northwest Aurora, according to the Aurora Police Department.

Law enforcement and volunteers searched the area where Lashaya was last seen Saturday but did not locate the girl.

Lashaya is a 150-pound black female. She’s 5-foot-6-inches tall with long black hair, brown eyes and a quarter size round scar on her chest.

She was last seen wearing a white long sleeve shirt and black stone wash jeans. She typically wears a silver watch on her left arm, according to the Aurora Police Department.

Those who see Lashaya or have information about her current whereabouts are asked to call 911 immediately. Those who have seen her this past week can call detective Sgt. Bob Wesner at 303-739-6093.
