Scott City authorities are looking for a missing teenager who was last seen Tuesday.
The Scott City Police Department issued an Endangered Person Advisory for Chad G. Goodholm, 15.
Goodholm was last seen by family members at 1 a.m. Tuesday, then was seen later in the day walking west near the railroad tracks headed out of Scott City, carrying two backpacks, according to information from the Missouri State Highway Patrol.
