In a heartwarming turn of events, Alicia Navarro, a teenager from Arizona who disappeared almost four years ago, has been found safe and sound at a police station in Montana. The 18-year-old, who had been diagnosed as autistic, walked into the station situated just 40 miles south of the Canadian border.

Officials from the Glendale Police Department expressed their relief, stating, “Alicia Navarro has been located. She is safe, healthy, and happy.” Her sudden disappearance on September 15, 2019, left her family devastated. Leaving behind a note assuring her parents of her return, Alicia’s absence triggered an extensive search involving local authorities, the FBI, and the Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

Despite receiving thousands of tips over the years, none led to Alicia’s discovery, until now. She made contact with authorities this week, seeking assistance in removing her name from the missing juvenile list. Glendale police spokesman, Jose Santiago, clarified, “She is not in any kind of trouble. She is not facing any kind of charges.”

While her reappearance is a joyous moment for her family, the investigation into her whereabouts over the past four years continues. The police, working in collaboration with federal partners, are determined to uncover the truth.

During a press conference, Alicia expressed her remorse and desire to rebuild her relationship with her mother after the hardships of the past years. Her mother, in a heartfelt Facebook video, attributed her daughter’s return to the power of prayer and urged others facing similar situations not to lose hope. “Miracles do exist,” she emphasized, giving hope to those with missing loved ones.

This miraculous reunion is a testament to the resilience of love and the strength of faith. As Alicia’s family learns more about her experiences during her absence, let us send our prayers and support to them in this remarkable journey of rediscovery.
