The missing 15-year-old Summit teenager has been found.

Alexis Stevenson was found uninjured, in Harlem at approximately 11
p.m. Tuesday night when she approached a New York City Police
Department officer in the 23rd precinct and told him that she ran away
from home the previous day.

"She was taken into protective custody by the NYPD who contacted the
Summit Police Department," said Lt. Steven Zagorski in an e-mail
Wednesday morning. "The Summit Police department in turn contacted her
parents who responded to NYC to take custody of their daughter."
Zagorski said the daughter of Board of Education Vice President
Michelle Stevenson and husband Kenneth, was alone when she approached
the officer.

"We are relieved and thankful for her safe return," Michelle Stevenson said by e-mail late Tuesday night.

Stevenson was reported missing on Monday morning after she was seen walking away from Summit High School shortly after 7:45 a.m.

It is still unknown at this time why the teen ran away from home.
