A 15-year-old boy ran away from home Saturday outside Cherry, AZ, and sheriff's officials need help finding him.
Cherry is located northeast of Highway 169 between Highways 69 and Interstate 17.
Wyatt Fields' mother told deputies he had walked away from home after a verbal argument around 1 p.m. His mother said Fields has done this in the past, but has always come home a short time later.
Deputies were concerned about the boy's health in the wake of triple-digit temperatures baking the region.
Fields is about 5'7" with a very thin build. He has short brown hair. He was last seen wearing blue jeans and a blue, sleeveless shirt. He was carrying an old, one-gallon vinegar bottle to hold drinking water. The bottle had orange-colored string ties as a handle.
Deputies said they believe Fields walked for some period of time along Cherry Creek Road and Old Cherry Road in the White Horse Ranch subdivision.
People with any information about his whereabouts are asked to call YCSO at 928-771-3260 and refer to case number 12-026607.
