CHICAGO — The Chicago Police Department is asking for the public’s help in locating a 16-year-old girl who has been missing since February.

Jaslene Nieves was last seen leaving her home on the 1400 block of North Central Avenue in the city’s Austin neighborhood on Feb. 21. According to police, the teen has not had any contact with family members since she was reported missing, which they say is unusual.

Nieves is described as 5-foot-7, 130 pounds, with black hair and hazel eyes. She was last seen wearing a red hoodie and black Adidas jogging pants with white stripes.

Anyone with information regarding the teen’s whereabouts is asked to call Area Five Detectives at 312-746-6554.
