Authorities Searching for Missing Teen

September 10, 2019 By Dick Cook and Contributed Article 0 Comments

The Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office is currently searching for a missing female, African American juvenile named Jasmine Harris (age 14).

Jasmine is described as 5’6” tall with brown eyes and brown hair.

She was reported missing from 5654 High Street on September 2, 2019 and has been missing for (9) days without any contact with her mom. It is important to note that she has a history of running away from home, but in previous incidences, she has usually maintained some form of contact with her mother. This newest incident is considered unique as she has never been gone this much time without contact with a parental figure.

Jasmine was last seen in East Ridge near the area of John Ross Road and South Seminole Road on September 3rd.

It is unclear if Jasmine is still located within the Chattanooga/Hamilton County area or if she may have travelled outside of our area.

HCSO investigators are currently following up on all available leads in order to locate Jasmine safely and return her to her family.

Two recent photographs of Jasmine are below that have been approved by her mother for dissemination to the press.

Anyone with any information regarding her current whereabouts or her previous whereabouts are asked to contact the HCSO Non-Emergency number 423-622-0022 or 911.
