Nassau County Police found a Great Neck teen who had gone missing on Monday, police announced on Wednesday.

Detectives said that Jennifer Medrano had last been seen leaving her Great Neck residence at 8:55 p.m. on Monday, traveling on foot in an unknown direction wearing blue jeans and a pink jacket.

“We don’t want them to be in danger. They’re minors,” a police spokeswoman previously said. “There are many dangers – that’s what we’re trying to avoid, any bad things happening.”

Police had described Medrano as a white Hispanic girl standing five feet, six inches tall and weighing about 160 pounds.
