Vallejo 'Missing' Woman Returned Home, Police Say There is 'No Evidence to Support Abduction Claims'

The father of a California woman allegedly abducted earlier this week from a home in what police called a potential kidnap-for-ransom case has now been found, according to reports released Wednesday.

Denise Huskins, 29, was found in Huntington Beach some 420 miles away from Vallejo, where she disappeared, according to her father. He said he could not elaborate further, according to the Daily Mail.

"Denise Huskins was found safe at a relative's house in Huntington Beach this morning after contacting her father and telling him she was here," the police department said in a statement posted to their Facebook page Wednesday. "Officers responded to her relative's house and confirmed she was safe there. Huntington Beach detectives are on scene and are working with Vallejo PD.

"There is no evidence to support the claims that this was a stranger abduction or an abduction at all," the Vallejo Police Department said in a message on its Facebook page in regard to the case of 30-year-old Denise Huskins, according to a Reuters report.

"Given the facts that have been presented thus far, this event appears to be an orchestrated event and not a crime," it added.

According to Vallejo police, Huskins called her father's cell phone Wednesday from a blocked number and said she had been dropped off near his home by an individual whom she did not identify.

On Tuesday, the San Francisco Chronicle received an email from an anonymous person claiming to be holding the 29-year-old woman. The person wrote that she would be returned safely Wednesday, the newspaper reported.

"We will send a link to her location after she has been dropped off. She will be in good health and safe while she waits," the email read. "Any advance on us or our associates will create a dangerous situation for Denise. Wait until she is recovered and then proceed how you will. We will be ready."

The email also included an audio file of a woman identifying herself as Denise Huskins, who mentioned Tuesday's airliner crash in the French Alps to verify she was alive. Mike Huskins confirmed the voice in the file was his daughter's, the Chronicle reported.
