Summary based on the NamUs case record (MP2872) and 7 other sources
Laroya Nate Bray, a 15-year-old from Los Angeles, California, was last seen on March 26, 2003. At the time of her disappearance, she was living with her mother and her mother’s fiancé near Arlington Avenue and Adams Boulevard. Laroya, known for her vibrant personality, was in the 10th grade at Crenshaw High School but was preparing to transfer to Dorsey High School.

On the day she vanished, Laroya was reportedly last seen standing outside her apartment building. Initially, it was believed she was with an unidentified African-American man, but this information was later discredited. Her mother's fiancé informed Laroya's mother around 5:30 p.m. that he could not locate her, and when her mother returned home later that night, she still had not come home. Authorities initially classified her as a runaway, and her case remains unsolved to this day.

At the time of her disappearance, Laroya had brown eyes and braided extensions dyed golden-blonde. She was wearing a red FUBU shirt or skirt, a white tank top, and gold jewelry, including hoop earrings. Despite years passing, there have been no confirmed sightings or updates on her whereabouts, and she remains missing. Law enforcement still classifies her case as a runaway, although there is concern about the circumstances surrounding her disappearance.
