A teenager who went missing in the US has been found after she used hand signals that went viral on TikTok to show she was in danger.
The girl had been reported missing by her parents in North Carolina on Tuesday morning, and was spotted inside a car in Kentucky two days later.
The 16-year-old used the gesture designed to help domestic abuse victims ask for help to alert a passing driver.
