More than 100 days after a Wichita teenager was reported missing, she was found, her mother shares online.

In a Facebook post early Saturday morning, mom Whitney Davis writes, "PRAISE GOD THEY FOUND MY BABY!!!!!
They FOUND LAMYAH!! I just got the CALL"

The Wichita Police Department confirms the same. However, the department could not confirm if any arrests or charges have made in connection to the 14-year-old girl's disappearance. 

"Yes, she has been located safe. I don't have additional details to share at this time - the case is still open," shares Wichita Police Public Information Officer Trevor Macy.
