Missing Lincoln girl found with mom in New Mexico

LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – A 2-year-old girl taken from her foster home has been found in New Mexico. Lincoln police told the Journal Star that the girl was taken Friday by her biological mother during a supervised visit. She was found Saturday in Las Cruces, New Mexico and placed in protective custody until her foster parents can pick her up. Police say the 24-year-old mother was arrested at a home of a family member in Las Cruces. She’s being held Sunday in the Dona Ana County jail. A hearing is set for Friday to determine whether the girl’s biological parents should still have parental rights.
