Troopers said in a statement late Saturday night that they have received a report “of a juvenile runaway.”

Latesia Rae Pierce, 14, was “reported to have contacted a white male between the age of 17-21 years old via social media,” police say. “She was last seen leaving Sheffield High School entering a black… Honda Accord with multiple stickers on the rear of the vehicle and an unknown New York registration.”
