A sixteen-year-old female was reportedly kidnapped from outside her residence on the hill area of Burbank and dropped off in the area of N. Keystone St. and W. Magnolia Blvd. on the afternoon of Sunday, January 12. A Burbank citizen found the girl and called police to the scene at 6:30 p.m. yesterday.
The sixteen-year-old girl was transported to a local hospital for a medical evaluation and her family was notified and joined the victim at the hospital. Officers and detectives conducted interviews and area checks at two locations the crime was reported to have occurred and the area where the victim had been dropped off, according to Sgt. Darin Ryburn of the Burbank Police Department.
“We have a lot of interviews to do and the investigation is active,” commented Ryburn. “We did a canvass of the areas involved and we are asking for anyone in the reported areas who might have noticed something to please contact the Burbank Police at 818-238-3000.”
