Authorities asked the public to be on the lookout for 13-year-old Emma Pangelinan, who was last seen Sunday afternoon, Jan. 21, in Mission Viejo.
Pangelinan’s family, who last saw her at about 3:30 p.m., said she may be riding her bright blue bicycle, according to the Orange County Sheriff’s Department. Spokeswoman Carrie Braun said the Mission Viejo girl is considered at-risk because of her young age.
Several people who said they are friends and acquaintances of the girl reported on Facebook that she was last seen at Florence Joyner Olympiad Park on Alicia Parkway and Olympiad Road.
Braun said bloodhounds were used Sunday after she was reported missing to try to track her down.
Anyone who has information about Pangelinan’s whereabouts is asked to call the Orange County Sheriff’s Department at 714-647-7000.
