Alert canceled after missing Denver teen is found

The 14-year-old was last seen around noon on June 19.

DENVER — The Colorado Bureau of Investigation (CBI) on Thursday canceled a Missing Indigenous Person Alert (MIPA) for a teenage girl in Denver.

CBI said the 14-year-old girl was last seen around noon June 19. 

She is described as 5 feet, 6 inches tall and 185 pounds, with black hair and black eyes.

The video above aired on Jan. 1

She is a member of the Northern Arapaho tribe, according to CBI.

The State of Colorado started issuing Missing Indigenous Person Alerts in January after a bill was signed into law in 2022.

SB 22-150 expanded the investigation into cases of missing and murdered Indigenous people, and created the MIPA through the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.

Colorado is the second state to offer an alert for missing Indigenous persons. Washington was the first.
