The Cobb County Sheriff's Office is asking residents to help locate three teenagers reported as runaways in separate incidents between Oct. 1 and Oct. 14.
The three cases span Woodstock and Marietta, as first reported by Atlanta News First on Oct. 20. Deputies have not indicated the disappearances are connected. The sheriff's office, which has jurisdiction over unincorporated Cobb County including East Cobb, is asking all county residents to watch for the teens.

All three teens were reported as runaways, according to the sheriff's office. The agency has not released additional details about the circumstances of any of the cases.
