Missing Teen Girl Now Safe at Home

A teenage girl who was reported missing is now safe at  home.

Paducah Police issued a report Thursday, saying that 15-year-old Arielle Monet Banks had been reported missing by her mother, saying the girl was last seen at 6:45 that morning. The mom was contacted by a school that morning, checking on Banks after getting a call saying she was sick, but the mother indicated she did not call. The mother called police after waiting to see if Banks came home once the school day ended.

Police say the girl returned home about 1:00 am Friday, and an officer verified she was safe with her parents.
