The FBI is sounding the alarm on a missing Arizona teen who's believed to have flown to Iowa to meet someone she met online.

Liliana Munguia was seen on home security footage on Aug. 5 leaving her dad's house near Bapchule around 1:30 a.m.

"It was learned that the same evening, Liliana purchased a plane ticket and flew from Mesa, Arizona, to Des Moines, Iowa, to meet an individual she met online. She was briefly in contact with family, but has since ceased communication," the FBI said in a news release on Aug. 13.

Munguia is described as a Native American female with black hair and brown eyes. She has a mole on the left side of her neck.
