An Ohio teen has been missing since May 17 when she left her home in Greenfield to go to a tanning salon and never came home.

Madison Bell, 18, never came back home according to her parents. Her car was found a couple hours later at the Good Shepherd church in Greenfield, which is in Southern Ohio.

Bell is described as having brown hair and brown eyes, with gray contact lenses, a cross tattoo on her neck and a ghost tattoo on her side.
