MATTAWAN, Mich. — The Van Buren County Sheriff’s Office (VBCSO) says a missing teenager who was believed to have been endangered has been found.
Deputies say the 17-year-old was found safe in Georgia. Authorities are currently in the process of bringing her back home.
She was originally reported missing a little before 8:30 a.m. Friday.
She had logged out of her Life360 account, shut off her phone and snuck out through her bedroom window early Friday morning, according to investigators.
They say she left a handwritten letter to her family explaining that she plans to be gone for four to seven days, she will be safe and she promises to return; however, the letter also included suicidal ideations.
It’s not clear if she ran away or left in a car.
