Houston Horror as Suspected Kidnapping and Trafficking Drama Ends with Chase and Girl Rescued

Following a call about a likely kidnapping, Houston Police engaged in a short but intense chase on Monday night, culminating in the discovery of a young girl believed to have been in danger of trafficking.

The chase reportedly began just past 8 p.m. after Houston Police received a tip-off to perform a welfare check on a girl, potentially kidnapped, seen at a Valero gas station on MLK Boulevard. The situation rapidly escalated when officers attempted to approach a vehicle matching the given description, only to have the occupants abruptly flee, as detailed by

ABC13

. The pursuit, a tense chase through city streets, ended roughly five miles from the gas station in the 11900 block of Longwood Garden.

Authorities reported that the suspect’s car pulled into a residential garage, which was followed by the suspects and the girl running into the house. This swift move into a haven of imagined safety did not deter law enforcement. Officers were quick to detain several individuals inside the home, including the girl who was the subject of the welfare check, according to

.

The identity and condition of the detained individuals remain undisclosed due to the ongoing investigation, the young girl was confirmed to be safe. The Houston Police Department revealed that initially, the girl had been reported as a runaway, “but after she was seen with a man, there were concerns that she was being trafficked,” thus heightening the urgency of the situation, as per

. The police have not immediately offered details on the possible charges to be filed or the current state of the child. Witnesses report cooperation from all parties involved during the house investigation.
