Help Authorities Find Another Missing Teen Last Seen in Southwest Oklahoma

It wasn't very long ago when three young teenagers went missing in Oklahoma. While they were all found relatively quickly after they were reported missing, this recent case is not having the same luck.

Authorities are searching for 15-year-old Aalyiah Rayelynn Parker-Moreno. She was last seen in Lawton, Oklahoma. Community members are being asked to report any information that could lead to her safe return to her family.

While having information can be most helpful for authorities, there are also other means that community members can help missing children like Aalyiah.

Missing teen last seen in Lawton, Oklahoma.

According to the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC), Aalyiah was reported missing nearly two weeks ago on Thursday, August 21. Since she was last seen in Lawton, Oklahoma, those with information regarding her case are encouraged to reach out to the Lawton Police Department.

Those who want to aid in the search for Aalyiah, or any missing teens or people in Oklahoma can do so by sharing flyers and information.

How can you help locate missing people without information?

The NCMEC gives visitors to the website the option to easily print flyers and hang them locally. If you do decide to hang missing person's flyers, please remember to check with local ordinances to make sure where you intend on hanging them is not prohibited.

Generally speaking, you cannot hang flyers on:

• Private property without permission from the property owner
• Government properties, courthouses and hospitals without permission
• Utility poles (i.e. electric poles, telephone poles, etc.)

Public parks may have a designated area to post flyers, so it's best to check with those in charge of the property before hanging them.

@shunickmissingpersons Does what we put on a missing person flyer impact public perception? It does. Just like all other campaigns a missing person campaign should be working to constantly increase public engagement and support. Our studies have shown that 1 clear up-to-date image is the best way to go with a missing person flyer or post. ##missingpersoncases##missingpersons##missingpeople##truecrime##education ♬ Take A Picture - Filter

You can always share information virtually through their website or local social media outlets like:

• See Me OKC 
• National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
• MissingInusa

Let's help bring Aalyiah home to her family and hopefully have a head start ready to use way to help those in the future.
