From KTVU.com:
- A 12-year-old girl is safe at home Thursday morning and is believed to have been with friends since she was reported missing Monday after she failed to show up at school in San Francisco, police said.
Billie McGee was picked up at a friend’s house in Oakland by her mother late Wednesday night, according to officials. At 11:50 p.m. police learned McGee had been found and sent an officer to meet with McGee and her mother at their house in San Francisco to make sure everything was okay, officials said.
McGee never showed up at school Monday, prompting a police search that lasted more than two days.

San Francisco police believe the 12-year-old girl who has been missing since Monday may be a runaway. Police contacted several men who communicated with Billie McGhee via text messages. All the men expressed surprise that she was 12. “They thought they were communicating with an older woman of 18. She presented herself to be much older,” said Capt. Marsha Ashe.
Billie’s mother found text messages with sexual overtones on the girl’s cell phone and mother and daughter argued. Billie left home on Monday and family members have not heard from her since.
Ashe believes the girl may be staying with a man she communicated with through the Internet. She encourages the pre-teen to return home. “She is 12 years old – I’m concerned for her. I hope she comes home. We want to make it possible for her to come home.”
