Authorities are continuing their search for a missing teen from Brewton, now about a week since she was last seen.

Brooke Lee Bridges is a 16-year old white female with blue hair that was last seen at her family home in Brewton about 11 p.m. on Sunday, February 7.

The FBI Child Abduction Rapid Deployment team from Quantico, Virginia, has become involved in the search, canvassing the neighborhood and follow up on leads as they come in. Agencies from across the area have been involved in the search, including Escambia Search and Rescue.

Authorities have also searched a lake for any possible clues.

The search has reached to the air. Escambia County Sheriff Grover Smith was uninjured Friday when the department’s small plane crashed during an aerial search Friday afternoon.

Bridges was last seen wearing a t-shirt and black sweatpants at her family home in Brewton around 11 p.m. on Sunday. She has brown eyes, is 5′3″ and weighs 100 pounds.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call the Brewton Police Department at (251) 867-3212 or 911.
