AURORA | Police are asking the public for help finding a missing 17-year-old girl who they say could be in danger.
Fenix Stanford was last seen June 15 near East Mississippi Avenue and South Potomac Street, police said.
Investigators described her as a black female, 5 feet, 6 inches tall, 150 pounds with black hair, black eyes and braces on her teeth. She was last seen wearing a black shirt and black pants, police said.
