At-Risk Runaway Girl In Company Of 'Dangerous' Man: RivCo Sheriff

MORENO VALLEY, CA — A runaway teen girl is believed to be in the company of a 33-year-old man who the Riverside County Sheriff's Department described as "dangerous."

On Friday, the agency shared a missing person's poster for Delilah Gomez, 15, alongside photos of Adrian Alfaro Ruiz.

On Monday, the agency continued sharing the poster on its social media feeds. Sheriff's department spokesperson Lt. Deirdre Vickers said Ruiz and the girl have not been seen since mid-November.

"There is an active warrant for Ruiz’ arrest and he should be considered dangerous," according to the Moreno Valley Sheriff's Station, which is handling the investigation.

The sheriff's department said Delilah is considered "at-risk."

Jail records show Ruiz has not been taken into custody in Riverside County.

Both the teen and Ruiz were last seen traveling in an older model Toyota, described as blue or gray in color (see poster). There was no word from authorities on where the two might be.

It's not clear what the relationship, if any, is between Ruiz and the girl.

Patch reached out to the sheriff's department for more information.

Anyone who sees the teen and/or Ruiz is asked to call 911. Anyone with more information about the case can contact the Moreno Valley Sheriff’s Station Investigations Bureau at 951-486-6700 or Deputy Bigby at wbigby@riversidesheriff.org.
