Missing New Port Richey Teen Could be in St. Pete

Pasco County sheriff’s deputies are looking for some help to locate a 15-year-old New Port Richey girl they say is missing and endangered.

Jamie Carnesha Lee recently moved to the area from Tampa. She attended Bishop McLaughlin High School for a time and has a history of running away, a sheriff’s office media release said.

Lee is believed to be involved in “high-risk activity” and is thought to be in Pinellas County, perhaps in St. Petersburg or Clearwater where she’s been found in the past, the release said.

The girl is described as 5 feet, 4 inches tall and weighs about 115 pounds. She has hair extensions and blue eyes.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call the sheriff’s office at 727-844-7711 or Det. Boyer at 352-518-5002.

“The Pasco Sheriff's Office is very concerned for Jamie's welfare,” the release said.
