DEARBORN, MI — The 14-year-old missing from Dearborn has been found safe, according to Michigan State Police.

The Metro Detroit division of MSP announced on Twitter just before 10 p.m. Monday that the teen had been found safe and the Endangered Missing Advisory for Reem Alsaidi was cancelled. It is unclear where she was found.

The teen Reem Alsaidi willingly left her Dearborn home with an unknown person at 5:15 a.m on Jan. 11, prompting a statewide search. Police used video of Alsaidi entering a white or gray sedan that pulled up in front of her residence at that time. They had also attempted to ping her cell phone to find her location, but were unsuccessful.
