Unified Police have found a Taylorsville teenager who ran away from home last month.
Olivia Graham, 17, gathered her belongings and left on Nov. 24, prompting the Unified Police Department to issue an endangered missing person advisory last week for the public's help in finding her. On Wednesday, detectives tracked her down to a Midvale address. She was safe, and is being reunited with her family, according to the police.
Olivia functions at a 12-year-old level and had boarded a bus "to a day treatment, but never arrived" on Nov. 24, according to a police news release. At some point that day, Olivia returned to her Taylorsville home, gathered some of her belongings and had not been heard from since, the release adds.
Police believed she did not take her cellphone or required medications with her, police Lt. Justin Hoyal said at the time. Police were concerned for her welfare, as she can "become violent and can put her[self] and others in danger" due to her mental condition and lack of medication, the release reads.
Officers searched extensively for Olivia, who has a history of running away, the release adds.
