A 13-year-old runaway girl from Catharine has been located.
According to Ellis County Sheriff Ed Harbin, Peyton Nicole White was found Monday in Wichita. Harbin would not release any other details.
The sheriff’s department said in a news release late last month that White had run away from state DCF care on Aug. 19.
“Despite having some contact with acquaintances through a Facebook account since Aug. 23, she has refused to return to her home in Catharine, Kansas,” the department reported in the news release.
Authorities believed White was in the Sedgwick, Ellis or Osborne county areas and she was not considered to be in danger.
