Missing teen Esther found safe in Toronto home in “good physical health”

A 14-year-old girl who has been missing for almost two weeks has been found safe, Toronto police say, ending a massive region-wide search. Esther, who has been diagnosed as being on the autism spectrum, disappeared from her North York home and was last seen around Bathurst Street and Hotspur Road after midnight on May 16. Her disappearance led to a massive search operation — with a $25,000 reward offered for information on the missing teenager. Police have said they are concerned for her safety, and last week upgraded their search to a Level 1 operation, which is the highest level. “I can advise that she was located in a home here in Toronto,” Supt. Don Belanger of 32 Division told reporters. “Our investigation will now turn to whether or not there is any evidence of criminality associated with her prolonged disappearance.” For more info, please go to https://globalnews.ca/news/11872263/missing-toronto-girl-esther-found/?utm_source=site_banner Subscribe to Global News Channel HERE: http://bit.ly/20fcXDc Follow Global News on X HERE: http://bit.ly/1Toz8mt Follow Global News on TikTok HERE: https://www.tiktok.com/@globalnews.ca?lang=en #GlobalNews
