ASHWAUBENON, WI (WTAQ) – Ashwaubenon Public Safety say they knew a 17-year-old missing teen is alive but they’re still looking for where she may be.
Now, police says Kylee Hegemen has been found.
Captain Jody Crocker says Hegeman was last seen Wednesday around noon at a Green Bay gas station using her debit card and then got into a car.
“Between myself and the officers, we’ve had many, many leads that we’ve been following and we’ve also incorporated the assistance of the Green Bay FBI office who are helping us out.”
Hegeman has been missing since Monday.
Investigators are trying to determine whether she left on her own or was coerced.
“There are many people that have had contact with her and they have been messaging with her in different avenues or speaking to her in person and they’re posting things out on social media sites,” said Crocker.
Crocker says their department used a lot of resources to locate Hegeman and it seems like there are individuals who were obstructing the investigation.
“In this day and age of human trafficking, our biggest concern is a person like her falling into the wrong hands.”
More details about this case expecetd to be released later today.
