It’s pretty amazing to see the power of social media being used the way it has to return the young woman, who ran away, back home to her worried parents. Great News!

No details on where or how she was suddenly “found”? Was she really “missing” in the first place?

Her boyfriend was also missing, they came back together, apparently they both run away together. Her boyfriend was saying all over facebook that they both have problems with her father and they only came back because of his family. His family was also sharing the post so it must be true. By the way, a missing person report was also filed against him, the police were looking for both of them.
