A North Carolina girl who had been missing since early July was found alive in Texas on Friday in the hands of alleged human traffickers, police said.

Aubriana Recinos, 4, and her mother Carmen Lowe, 23, of Fayetteville, N.C., were reported missing July 8. Fayetteville Police issued an endangered-child warning after receiving information that Lowe had left the state with her young daughter, a direct violation of a court-ordered child custody agreement.
