Sheriff Louis Ackal says his office is looking for a 16-year-old who ran away from home earlier this week.

The sheriff says the runaway girl's name is Shalori Archangel.  She is a black female, about 5-1, weighing around 180 pounds, and she was last seen wearing a blue shirt and blue jeans.

The girl has black hair and brown eyes, and police says the 16-year-old left here home on Mississippi Street in New Iberia after she and her mother argued over use of a cell phone.

Shalori is believed to possibly be in the St. Martinville area.

Juvenile detectives are asking if anyone has information on Shalori’s location to please contact the Iberia Parish Sheriff’s Office at (337) 369-3711.
