AUSTIN (KXAN) -- The Hutto Police Department is seeking the public's help to find a 17-year-old who allegedly ran away from home earlier this week.

According to police, Morton "posted pictures of himself abusing prescription medication and being armed with a rifle."
Morton was "seen possibly walking eastbound on US 79 going toward Taylor between Limmer Loop and Frame Switch," according to police.
