A 16-year-old girl missing from Southeast Washington, D.C., for ten days has been found safe.
Taylor Mathis Johnson took out the trash and then headed off to have her hair done on June 29, the Black and Missing Foundation said. She was spotted in the Wharf area that evening, but she didn’t come home and didn’t have her phone with her, WRC reported.
Her family said she was found safe on Friday and reunited with family members.
The teen’s mother worked with D.C. detctives and the Black and Missing Foundation to find her daughter.
“I kind of told myself, ‘… you know, just think positive, think positive,’ but then positive became negative, because I’m like, ‘This is not like my child,'” her mother said.
No other information was released.
