Circumstances of Disappearance
Teresa Reyes was last seen in Albuquerque, NM on July 1, 1998. She disappeared from the families apartment sometime after 23.00. The light in Teresa's room was on, TV was on and music was playing, but Teresa had left the apartment. She never returned. She didn't take anything with her - no money, no clothes, no purse, no makeup, and she didn't take her medication. Her mother believe she may have sneaked out to go to a party, and that she became the victim of foul play.

Police initially treated her disappearance as a runaway, as she had ran away before. Those times she always called her mother and let her know she was safe and coming home.

She may have contacted several males driving a cream-colored van in good condition with no lettering. One or more of them may have lived behind a Phillips 66 gas station on Fourth Street and Montano Road Northwest.
A police investigation indicates that she might also have been in the company of a Cuban male named Oscar and a woman named Monica, last located at a motel at Central Avenue and San Pedro Drive Northeast.
Teresa is described as very impulsive and trusting.
