Lost & found people in Mendocino County

Missing teen, 17, light brown hair, blue hoodie

I lost my sister, Nia Patel, yesterday around 7:15pm. She's 17, about 5'4", with shoulder-length light brown hair and a blue hoodie that’s a bit faded. Last I saw her, she was walking south on Highway 1 near the Glass Beach overlook in Fort Bragg, Mendocino County, heading toward downtown. She was carrying a navy backpack with a peach-colored stripe and wears a small star tattoo on the inside of her right forearm. This is really scary for us—she's shy and tends to wander off when overwhelmed; she has a few friends in the area but no GPS on her phone lately. If anyone spots her, please text or call me immediately; I just want to bring her home safely.
