14-year-old girl at center of Stafford Amber Alert found safe in Aldine area, police say

STAFFORD, Texas (KTRK) -- An Amber Alert was discontinued for a 14-year-old girl who authorities previously considered to be in grave danger.

The alert was activated for Jasmin Murff, who was last seen at about 6:30 p.m. on Sunday, Aug. 13, at 12680 Fountain Lake Circle in Stafford.

Stafford police said the teen was found safe at 10:49 p.m. Monday near the Aldine area with the assistance of the FBI and the Houston Police Department.

Jasmin is in the process of being transported to the Stafford Police Department, where she will be released to her family, police said

"She was found by HPD with the help of the FBI. Our oldest son Alec was instrumental in giving leads to the Stafford police," Jasmin's mom told ABC13. "His SM [sic] navigating skills are incredible. He just wanted his sister home."

Jasmin's parents called police Monday afternoon, after the girl was seen leaving a Main Event with a strange man.

The girl's father told ABC13 he thought his daughter was meeting a friend, but that's when the man showed up. He tried to take her home, but said his daughter refused to leave.

"Passenger side doors both opened, and as they went in, and I was reaching to grab her. I tried to grab the door and her. He punched it and headed out of the parking lot," Jasmin's father said.

Police were able to locate the Buick driver, but said he didn't provide anything useful to track down Jasmin.
