A 16-year-old girl from Santa Clarita has been found after she reportedly went missing on Friday evening, leading thousands of residents to take to social media in an effort to find her.
After reportedly being missing for several days, Hannah Casey, 16, was found by officials with the Santa Clarita Valley Sheriff’s Station in “good condition,” according to Shirley Miller, spokesperson for the station.

Looks like a human trafficking indecent. It is so bad in Santa Clarita. ZOE International has now opened an office in Newhall.
Did she run away or was she found from being abducted? A little more info would be appreciated.
She was a run away she left on her own free will with someone she knew.
I don’t want to be a Debbie Downer but this girl needs counseling and be off of social media.
All the posts on Facebook, particularly the original should be deleted so they are not continually shared.
Michael,
If people are discussing what a story is about, consider it is because it did not give them the Who, What, When, Where, Why and the How. Ask yourself why Emily had to round out the information and your story left people asking what actually happened. Lately I have seen several stories from the KHTS reporters that are failing to provide the level of information we had been accustomed to. Eventually that will open the door to competition and loss of market share.
100% agree!
@Patrick I thought I’m the only one who noticed that?? Don’t like the way they tell the story.
she is a minor and most Likely was with adults that exploited her.People need to understand 16 is a child still.
She may have been hanging out with creatures that listen to & behave like gangster rappers(PC called hip hop), that promotes decadent lifestyles that the naive youngsters “think” is cool, along with their phones glued to their faces blind them from normal reality!!
