Police said they're looking for a 12-year-old boy who went missing from his home in the Bronx after an argument with his family.

Jaden Saldivar left his building on Grand Concourse and East 171st Street at around 9:30 p.m. Monday and didn’t come back, officials said.

Officials said he had a dispute with family members, but it was unclear what the argument was about.

Police described Saldivar as about 4’6” and weighing 100 pounds. He was last seen wearing a light blue sweater, gray pants and light blue sneakers.
