***UPDATE: EMMA HAS BEEN FOUND SAFE***

The Lake County Sheriff's Office is still searching for a teen girl who went missing Wednesday.

Emma Roberts, 16, was last seen leaving Central High School District of Westosha in Salem, Wis. Sheriff's Detectives believe Roberts was given a ride to her house in unincorporated Antioch after school, where she packed a bag and left again before her family arrived.

She does not have a cell phone on her, as it was previously taken away as a consequence.

Roberts is believed to be in the Racine/Kenosha or Lake County areas. She is described as 5 ft. 7 in. tall, 145 pounds with blue eyes and dark blonde hair. She also has a tattoo on her left shoulder of a guitar with the word "Dad."

If you have any information on her whereabouts, you are asked to contact the Lake County Sheriff's Office at 847-549-5200, or send a tip online. If you see Emma, call 911 so that law enforcement can respond right away.
