A teenaged girl who appeared to be forcibly taken from her Malvern home has been found safe.

Toronto police sent out a number of alerts Monday morning asking the public to come forward with any tips on the missing 16-year-old, identified as Breann Lee.

But just before 1 p.m., officers tweeted that the girl was found "safe and sound."

The mother of the girl had told officers Monday morning that her daughter was dragged out of their house by two suspects. The home is located at McLevin Avenue and Tapscott Road, south of Finch Avenue.

Police dispatched a K9 unit to search for the girl, and publicly released a description of her and the clothes she was wearing to the public..

Officers were told that the girl was taken by two teenaged males. Police said the two suspects and the girl were last seen walking eastbound, possibly towards a wooded area.

Police did not say if the girl was indeed taken forcibly from her home.
