Samantha “Sammy” Campbell, of Tooele, left home shortly after 5:30 p.m. Sunday, leaving a note saying she had run away.

“She left with some clothes in a backpack and hasn’t been seen or heard from since then,” Sgt. Scott Schovaers of Tooele City Police Department said Tuesday.

Campbell is described as 5 feet tall, 170 pounds with burgundy or red hair, and was last seen wearing a black hoodie, jeans and white tennis shoes.

Schovaers said authorities are concerned for the juvenile’s safety due to “her young age, and the fact that no one has heard from her, including any of her friends, since she left her home that night,” he said.

Samantha Campbell is described as follows:

Height: 5 feet tall
Weight: 140 pounds
Age: 13
Skin color: White
Hair: Burgundy-red
Eyes: Brown
