Police seek public’s help locating missing Waltham teen with medical needs

Police are asking for the public’s help in locating a missing 17-year-old girl last seen earlier this month.

Victoria “Tori” Amore was last seen leaving her residence on Lexington Street at 11:19 p.m. on Friday, July 3, according to the Waltham Police Department. Authorities said she was observed getting into a dark-colored sedan, though the make and model of the vehicle are unknown.

Police said Amore has several serious medical conditions, including a severe food allergy and asthma. She was not carrying an EpiPen or inhaler when she left her home. She also has a disorder that causes seizures, though she is not epileptic, officials said.

Amore is known to wear her hair in box braids or smaller slicked-back braids and may sometimes wear heavy makeup, police said.

Anyone with information about Amore’s whereabouts is urged to contact the Waltham Police Department at 781-314-3600.
