A missing 7-year-old Georgia girl has been found in Puerto Rico, more than a week after she was allegedly snatched by her mother, who did not have custody rights.
Stella Brennan Salter had been missing since March 29, when she and her mom, children’s book author Wendy Salter, 46, were last seen in Metter, about 65 miles from Savannah.
They were both found about noon Saturday at a store in Puerto Rico, according to the FBI office in Atlanta.
The mom faces up to five years behind bars after she was charged with interstate interference with child custody, WJCL reported.
