VENICE, Fla. — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children and Venice police are asking for the public’s help finding a 15-year-old girl who has been missing for more than two weeks.
Anabella Saben was reported missing from her home in Venice on Aug. 15.
Her father, David Saben, said the family has had no communication with Anabella since her disappearance and is increasingly concerned for her safety.
He also said she may need medical attention.
“Anabella, we want you to know that we love and miss you so much,” her father said in a message shared through NCMEC. “We are not angry, and all we want is for you to come back home to us and to know that you are safe. Please reach out.”
Anabella is described as 5 feet tall and about 105 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
Authorities said she could still be in the Venice area or elsewhere in Florida.
Effort expands to find missing teen
NCMEC said Anabella’s missing-person poster is being displayed on gas pumps across Florida through a partnership with GSTV.
Information about her disappearance is also being shared through Ring’s Neighbors app in selected areas in an effort to reach more people who may have seen her.
Anyone with information about Anabella’s whereabouts is asked to call the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children at 1-800-THE-LOST (1-800-843-5678) or the Venice Police Department at 941-486-2444.
