Gogebic County Sheriff's Office

Sheriff’s officials say Charity Pera, 14, and Abigail Borlek, 11, left early Thursday evening but didn’t return when they were supposed to by 7 p.m. An hour later family members contacted police and went to look for the girls. They found the ATV and helmets the girls were wearing, but no one was around.

Deputies say Pera and Borlek were located around 4:20 Friday morning and are back home. Their conditions and other details are unknown at this time.
