Missing Hudson Valley Teen Found in Colorado

A missing Hudson Valley teen who fled without her vital daily medication was found in Colorado.

Hailey M. Schacher went missing from Ellenville on July 3. The 17-year-old was described as being a 5'6" 120-pound white woman with brown hair and brown eyes. She has scars on both of her lower forearms.

When she went missing, officials were worried because she left home without her cell phone and medication, which needed to be taken daily, police say.

Authorities believed she may have traveled to Colorado. After what police called an "intense investigation" the Ellenville Police Department announced on Tuesday, that Schacher was found in Aurora, CO at the home of a relative.

Ellenville police were helped in the investigation by the Ulster County Sheriff Department, New York State Police in Ellenville and Haverstraw, Missing Persons Clearing House and the Aurora City Police Department.
