A missing Texas girl was found in Mexico Tuesday, 12 years after she went missing during a weekend visit with her mother.

The FBI and Mexico authorities say 17-year-old Sabrina Allen was found Tuesday night in Papalotla, Tlaxcala, outside of Mexico City. She was reported missing by her father in 2002, after the then-4-year-old girl vanished after a weekend visit with her mother.

A team of FBI, U.S. Marshals and Mexican federal agents apprehended the girl’s mother southeast of Mexico City, a private investigations firm hired by the girl’s father reported Wednesday. Allen was found nearby and returned to Texas where she will be reunited with her father.

The firm said one Mexican agent sustained minor injuries during the mother’s arrest.

The case was twice profiled on America’s Most Wanted.

The teen and her mother, Dara Llorens, were flown back to Texas early Wednesday. Llorens is now jailed in Austin on an aggravated kidnapping charge and being held on a $300,000 bond. It was not immediately clear if Llorens has an attorney.
