Missing girl, 14, found alive and pregnant inside wardrobe a year after her disappearance in kidnap horror | The Sun
A MISSING 14-year-old girl has been found alive and pregnant after police found her hidden inside a wardrobe.
The unnamed teenager vanished in 2021 but a year later she was finally reunited with her father following the horrific ordeal.
Police were tipped off by a member of the public before searching the house in Port Huron, Michigan, and were stunned to find the youngster inside.
She was discovered inside the hallway wardrobe, just metres from where the occupants were sitting despite claims they had never seen the teen.
The four occupants of the address initially refused to let cops enter until they returned with a search warrant – which officers said was a huge red flag.
Speaking to the Detriot Free Press Deputy Marshal Robert Watson said: "They wouldn't let us in. They wouldn't allow us to speak with anyone in the house, which were huge red flags for us.

Deputy Marshal Robert Watson added: "She was pretty upset, she was crying and she was pretty scared. She wasn't sure what was going to be happening to her."
Authorities believe that the girl's mother had been moving her from house to house in a bid to conceal her.
Officials are now looking to pursue parental kidnapping charges against the mother while the occupants of the house could also be charged with harbouring a fugitive.
Watson was told by Child Protective Services that her dad was "very relieved" to have his daughter home.
She was also "ecstatic" to be reunited with her biological father.
Deputy Watson said: "He [the Dad] had been dealing with this nightmare for a year and a half. And he's in a much better place now.
"When you can bring a child home to their family, especially when they’ve been gone a year and a half, I just couldn’t imagine what that’s like going through, that’s why this mission is so important to me."
