Missing 14-year-old Farmington girl "located safe," police say
Police in Farmington, Minnesota, say a 14-year-old girl who went missing nearly a week ago has been "located safe."
The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension set out an alert on Monday, with the girl's mother telling WCCO Tuesday she worried her daughter, who lives with autism, met someone online and was in danger.
That same day, police took computers from the girl's home, allowing the FBI to look for clues in her search histories.
On Thursday morning, police announced she has been found, thanking "everyone who assisted in locating her and for sharing the information."
The circumstances surrounding her disappearance are still unclear.
