Missing teen found safe

A Fulton County teenager missing since Friday has been found safe.

Mia Evon Cruse said she was at a football game at Westlake High School, where she attends, and would get a ride home with friends when she spoke to her godmother by phone at 8 p.m. Friday, according to Detective Melissa Parker with Fulton County police.

Cruse then sent a text message to a friend before calling 911, Parker said. But that was the last call Cruse made before her phone shut off, Parker said.

A Smyrna police officer found Cruse safe early Tuesday near Campbell High School in Cobb County.
