CLARK, NJ — Authorities say it appears a missing New Jersey girl
called a taxi around the same time she tweeted that someone was in her
home.
Kara Alongi gained hundreds of followers after asking people
on Twitter to call 911 Sunday. People
re-tweeted her message and the
hashtag "#helpfindkara" trended on the social network.
The Union
County Prosecutor's Office says a cab driver positively identified
Alongi as his passenger and told officials he drove her to the Rahway
train station.
The 16-year-old's parents called Clark police when they returned home and saw she was gone.
The
prosecutor's office says Alongi might feel she'll be in trouble for
causing a panic. However, authorities say all everyone cares about is
seeing her home safe and sound.
