MANHATTAN, NY — The family of an Illinois woman, who was missing for more than three months, said she has been located after someone recognized her inside an Apple store in Manhattan.
Shamari Brantley's family had been looking for the 22-year-old since late August, and her family told PIX11 that a security guard recognized her in the store on 5th Avenue on Sunday and called them. "I was so happy. I just couldn't believe it," Artimece Cotton told the news station.
Brantley, who has schizophrenia, was taken to a nearby hospital to be evaluated, the report said. She is originally from the Chicago area but had been hitching rides to New York City, and Cotton had been trying to locate her using phone records. Someone found her phone at the Zerega Avenue train station in the Bronx two months ago, her mother wrote in an online fundraiser. Brantley's family had made several trips to New York City to look for her, and pass out flyers, in the hopes someone would help them find her.
