14-year-old girl, Chloe Campbell, found alive, after missing in a high school football game

Chloe Campbell, a 14-year-old teen has been found alive after she went missing from her high school football game.

The police authorities announced that she was back with her family on Monday.

In a statement via their official website, the Boulder police department said that the 14-year-old teen, who is from Boulder, Colorado, was found at a home in Thornton — a city that is roughly 30 minutes away.

The police said:

“While investigators continue to believe that Chloe ran away, there is an ongoing investigation about where she was and what occurred while she was separated from her family. Some details are being withheld at this time to allow for a thorough investigation

Deputy Chief Stephen Redfearn added in a news briefing on Monday evening that specific details can not be provided due to Chloe’s age and that she was considered a runaway given the circumstances.

When Chloe didn’t return home after the high school football game, her parents Jessica and David began posting flyers around town.

The parents feared their teenage daughter may have been trafficked or is being held against her will.

A nationwide search sparked after her father filed a missing person’s report on Oct. 1, Redfearn said. He explained that an Amber Alert was not issued because “Boulder Police had no evidence to suggest that an abduction had occurred.”

He said:

“There are indications that considerable steps were being taken by Chloe to avoid contact from law enforcement as well as her family.”

“We, however, had indications that she was alive throughout the week. Police are relieved that she has been located.”

He shared that she was found after authorities followed several leads and refused to “rest easy” until they had direct communication with the teen.

Redfearn said authorities were led to Chloe due to local police’s collaboration with the FBI and new information they discovered.
