Search efforts are underway Sunday for a missing teen in Lynn, Massachusetts.

Lynn police say 17-year-old Brian Lopez hasn't been seen since Friday evening. The teen's family tells NBC10 Boston that they reported him missing to police around midnight.

We're told there is video of him leaving his home on Warren Place and walking off, wearing a hoodie and his backpack. They say his phone was also found later on, laying on the ground on Gardiner Street.

His family is asking people living in that area to check their security cameras for any potential video of Lopez, or indication of what might have happened.

His cousin tells NBC10 Boston that Lopez spends a great deal of time in the Lynn Woods Reservation. He's a rising senior at Lynn Classical High School. They say he does not have any medical conditions or disabilities, and they don't believe he ran away.

The Lynn police and fire departments and Massachusetts State Police were all out actively searching for Lopez in the reservation by Gannon Golf Course.

Anyone with information is asked to contact the Lynn Police Department at 781-595-2000.
