UPDATE: Missing teen back home
Times Herald
A 16-year-old Minden City girl has returned home after being reported missing.
It was determined Aurora Mierop was a voluntary runaway and no foul play was involved, according to the Sanilac County Sheriff Department.
"It is a relief she is home safe and teens need to realize how serious their decision to runaway is," the sheriff department said in a statement. "These cases tie up hours of investigative time; worry parents, family and community involved, and can lead to dangerous situations such as kidnapping and human trafficking."
Mierop was last seen Friday when she was going to a friend's house in Gagetown. She returned home Monday night.
The sheriff department thanks the community for coming forward with tips.
