The North Bergen Police Department is urgently asking for the public’s assistance in locating Briana Choy Palacios, a 16‑year‑old girl reported missing earlier this month. According to police, Briana was last seen on September 9, 2026, wearing a pink top, pink skirt, and beige sneakers. Investigators believe she may be using public transportation to travel into New York City, increasing the importance of public awareness across both New Jersey and NYC transit hubs.
Authorities are urging residents in North Bergen, Hudson County, and commuters traveling between NJ and NYC to stay alert. Even small observations—such as seeing someone matching Briana’s clothing description or noticing a teen traveling alone—can be crucial.
Residents and commuters are encouraged to:
