The teenager was last seen entering the Pitkin Avenue-Van Siclen Avenue A and C line subway station in East New York just before 3 p.m.

Police say about 10 minutes later, she texted a family member that two strange men had taken her. She apparently hasn't been heard from since. Her name was not immediately released.
