The AMBER Alert was deactivated a little after 8a.m. when Victoria Knight and Kayla White were located unharmed at another apartment building in Columbus; Thomas Griffin was with them. Police say the details of the abduction are sketchy and it may have been a misunderstanding. They will continue to investigate.

It is hard to tell if police jumped the gun by activating the AMBER Alert or if family members might have escalated the details to cause police to become concerned enough to activate the alert.
