Lauran Pineda, 16, was reported missing from Arlington County, Virginia. She was last seen on April 15, 2026, and an alert was issued; the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children lists an open case. Public authorities have not released details about the circumstances of her disappearance, what she was wearing, or whether they consider her to be in immediate danger.

Those specifics do not match the Arlington alert, and it is unclear whether the records refer to the same person.

Law enforcement has asked the public for help. If anyone has information about Lauran Pineda’s whereabouts, please contact the Arlington County Police Department or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children.
