Missing Florida teenager found safe in New York, authorities say

Caitlyn Frisina, the 17-year-old who has been missing from Columbia County for nearly a week, was found safe in New York state on Friday.

There was no immediate indication where in New York Caitlyn was found.

The search ends a days-long drama in which Frisina was discovered to have left her Lake City home with Rian Rodriguez, a 27-year-old soccer coach.

The pair had been suspected of being in the Northeastern United States, possibly Pennsylvania.

They had been seen along the I-95 corridor in Georgia, South Carolina and North Carolina, but the last sighting was last Sunday.
