ATTICA — Two days after a Silver Alert was issued for a missing 14-year-old from Floyd County in southern Indiana, the teen was found safe in an Attica shed.
Attica is located in Fountain County (southwest of Tippecanoe County).
According to a release from the Attica Police Department, an 18-year-old that was named a person of interest in the 14-year-old's disappearance was located in Attica walking near Council and Washington streets.
The police department says the 18-year-old was taken into custody without incident — despite what online rumors said about a SWAT team being used.
