Concerns Mount as 14-Year-Old Pasadena Girl Still Missing After 3½ Days

Pasadena police say a 14-year-old girl last seen Friday, May 15 leaving the campus of John Muir High School has still not been found.

Talya Thompson was reportedly seen by her sister walking away from the school at  1905 Lincoln Avenue around 11 a.m.

The teen has run away from home before, authorities said, and the parents waited until Sunday to report her missing. She usually returns with a day or two, police explained.

Authorities describe her standing 5′ 6″ and weighing about 170 pounds. She has medium complexion, brown hair, brown eyes. Media reports indicate she was last seen wearing a blue-and-orange hooded sweatshirt, black pants and leopard print shoes.

“She was not under duress and there was nothing suspicious about her walking away from the campus,” Lt. Jesse Carrillo told City News Service.

If you have information that can assist in helping safely locate Talya Thompson, please call 911 or contact the Pasadena Police Department with any information at (626) 744-4241.
