Lucy Riggs, a 16-year-old female, was reported missing from Portland, Oregon, with her last known date listed as October 20, 2024. The publicly available notice from the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children identifies her as a missing child, lists Portland, Oregon as the location connected to her disappearance, and records that she was last seen on that date.
The notice also states that Lucy may go by the name Max, an important detail for anyone who may have encountered her, heard her mentioned by another name, or seen information shared under a different name.
The official missing-child poster gives only a small amount of public detail, but the information it does provide is clear and urgent. Lucy’s case is associated with NCIC number M818146884 and NCMEC case number 2044818. The poster directs anyone with immediate information to call 911 and lists the Portland Police Department as the local agency connected to the case, with a phone number of 823-3333. NCMEC also lists its 24-hour call center at 1-800-843-5678, emphasizing that tips can be shared at any hour when a child is missing and time, memory, and small observations may matter.
In the absence of more detailed public reporting, Lucy’s story remains defined by the few verified facts that have been released: her name, her age, her gender, her last-seen date, her Portland location, and the note that she may use the name Max. No publicly available source reviewed here provides a detailed timeline of the hours before she was last seen, a description of the circumstances surrounding her disappearance, or information about who last had contact with her. That lack of detail does not make the case any less serious; it means the public record is limited, and the safest way to tell her story is to stay close to what has been confirmed.
For Lucy’s family, friends, and community, October 20, 2024 marks the point where ordinary life gave way to uncertainty. A teenager from Portland became the subject of a missing-child notice, and the facts that remain in public view are the ones investigators and child-protection advocates have asked people to remember: Lucy Riggs, 16 years old, female, last seen in Portland, Oregon, possibly known as Max. The overview of the case is that Lucy Riggs is listed by the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children as a missing child from Portland, Oregon, last seen on October 20, 2024; anyone with information is urged to contact 911, the Portland Police Department at 823-3333, or NCMEC’s 24-hour call center at 1-800-843-5678.Last Seen: Oct 20, 2024
