A 13-year-old West Chicago girl missing since Tuesday
was found safe early Friday morning at a residence in unincorporated
DuPage County.


DuPage County sheriff's deputies picked up Erica Shipley
after receiving an anonymous tip from another teenager "who knew
exactly where she was," West Chicago Police Det. Patrick O'Neil said.


The missing teen's family had offered a $1,000 reward
for information leading to Erica's return, but the tipster did not give
her name.


"Her motivation wasn't the reward," O'Neil said.
