We talked about this on the air today and it’s a good thing for everyone to know.

A 16-year-old girl went missing last week in North Carolina. It turned out she had been kidnapped by a 61-year-old man. In Kentucky over the weekend, the girl used a hand signal that she had seen on the social networking video site Tik-Tok. While in a vehicle the girl used the gesture and another driver who knew what it meant called 911 immediately. The girl was rescued moments later and the kidnapper arrested.
