GILBERT, Arizona — The Gilbert Police Department is requesting the public’s assistance in locating 15-year-old Brynlee Qualls, who ran away from her foster residence near South Higley and East Riggs Roads on April 22, 2025, at approximately 3:00 a.m. Qualls left her cell phone behind, making it harder for authorities to track her movements, and her current whereabouts remain unknown, prompting concern for her safety as a vulnerable juvenile.
Brynlee Qualls is described as 5 feet 3 inches tall, weighing 119 pounds, with brown hair and green eyes. She was last seen wearing blue sweatpants and a long-sleeve grey shirt. While her biological mother lives in Surprise, Arizona, it is unclear if Qualls intends to return there, adding complexity to the search. The area around Higley and Riggs Roads is a residential neighborhood with nearby commercial zones, and Qualls may have sought shelter or transportation to leave the area. The fact that she left without her phone suggests she may not have planned her departure thoroughly, increasing the risk she faces as a runaway teen.
If you have any information about Brynlee Qualls’s whereabouts, please contact the Gilbert Police Department at 480-503-6500 and reference case number 25-73037. Even a small detail could be critical in ensuring her safe return to a secure environment.
The Gilbert community’s involvement is essential in this search. Let’s come together to help find Brynlee Qualls and bring her back to safety.
