GILBY, N.D. (KFGO) – An 18-year-old woman who was reported missing from a Grand Forks Air Force Base campground has been found safe according to the Grand Forks County Sheriff’s Office.
Hailey Sullivan was found Wednesday afternoon near Gilby, northwest of the base. She has an intellectual disability.
“This reunion would not have been possible without the hard work and coordination efforts between our base Security Forces, Grand Forks County Sheriff’s Office, U.S. Customs and Border Protection, the Grand Forks Police Department’s Unmanned Aerial System unit, Emerado Police Department, military members with their families and Altru,” Col. Jeremy Fields, 319 Reconnaissance Wing Vice Commander, said. “We are especially thankful for the public vigilance which assisted in locating Hailey. Good neighbors once again proved this is a wonderful community to be a part of.”
The sheriff’s office, other law enforcement and Air Force personnel had been searching for the military dependent since she left the base campground.
