Oklahoma police are searching for a teen girl who vanished on April 3 and hasn’t been in contact with her family.
According to the Oklahoma County Sheriff’s Office, 16-year-old Samantha Jo Ann Barnes disappeared at around midnight from the Deer Creek area. A tweet from the Oklahoma Highway Patrol indicated that she was last seen in a light-colored hoodie and could possibly be headed to or in Wichita, Kansas.
She could possibly be with a man named Axel, ABC 5 reports.
KAKE reports that family members said they’re concerned for Samantha’s health; she doesn’t have her medication or her phone with her. She’s also reportedly known to self-harm and “considered suicidal.”
She’s described as a white female who stands 5 feet, 6 inches tall and weighs around 130 pounds. Police said Samantha has four piercings in each ear, along with a slightly “lazy eye” in her left eye.
