ATLANTA (AP) - Police say a woman who had been sought as a possible kidnap victim has been located in the Riverdale area and arrested.

Fulton County police spokesman Sgt. Scott McBride says a search was begun for 24-year-old Deniecia E. Lester after her husband reported she had text-messaged him that she had been kidnapped.

McBride says a team of 2 Fulton police and six U.S. marshals searched for her on Thursday in the Clayton County area.

He says she was located unharmed last night.

Police say Lester was arrested on a charge of a false report of a crime.
