Missing 11-year-old girl found locked in park bathroom in Florida
Watch the moment a missing 11-year-old girl was found by police in a locked park bathroom in Florida.
The child was safely reunited with her family after being located by Hillsborough County sheriff’s deputy Sarah Ernstes and K-9 Mary Lu on Friday night (26 January).
Deputy Ernstes initially tracked the girl to a neighbour’s house, where she learned the residents had given the child a ride to a nearby apartment complex in Wimauma.
Units moved to that location and once there, K-9 Mary Lu alerted them to a locked bathroom at a park in the area.
The missing girl was talked into unlocking the door by deputies, the sheriff’s office said.
She was found safe and without injury.
