Henderson Police are asking for the public's help in finding this girl, who told people her name was "Christina."

A teen police reported as missing on Tuesday had been a runaway earlier this year, but she was previously found and returned home to her parents, Henderson Police officials said.

Earlier on Tuesday, police issued a bulletin saying they were searching for the girl and that she had last been seen in late January or February.

At about 7:20 p.m., they issued a new alert saying the girl had been identified and located.

Police also said the 16-year-old, who had identified herself as Christina, had not been a runaway for four years, as she told people.
