APACHE JUNCTION, Ariz. - A 13-year-old girl has been found safe after she was last seen getting into a car with a man at an Arizona gas station.
What we know:
The Arizona Department of Public Safety issued a Turquoise Alert on Tuesday night for Skyler Conville, who went missing from a Circle K, located at 3135 West Superstition Boulevard in Apache Junction just after 1 p.m. on that Friday.
Officials said she walked away from the gas station parking lot after getting into a verbal argument with several family members. Conville refused to enter the family member's vehicle and was seen going back to the parking lot at 1:06 p.m. and "walking up to what appeared to be an early 2000s white Chevrolet Impala four-door sedan with damage to the front driver's side bumper, which she got into," according to DPS.
Turquoise Alert: What to know as Arizona activated alert for the first time
