Overview
- Police in Berlin confirmed on Monday that a 16-year-old who left a Pankow community accommodation has been found and is back with her family.
- The Berlin teenager left the shelter on Wednesday around noon heading toward Frankfurter Allee and carried no mobile phone, which officers said made contact and location harder.
- Local police in Anhalt-Bitterfeld said a 14-year-old who left her Kleinwülknitz home on Friday morning returned on her own Sunday evening and the search was ended.
- Authorities used public appeals, a criminal police hotline, email and the online Internetwache to collect tips while searches were under way.
- Both cases followed standard missing-person procedures and ended with the girls in family care with no reports of criminal activity released so far.
