Two missing sisters from Maryland have been safely recovered, according to Prince George's County police.

Roxann Alexus Owen, 14, and her sister Déjà Michelle Owen, 11, were found in Capitol Heights, Md., on Jan. 3, a week after they were last seen leaving a friend's home. They were discovered unharmed and in good health.


Cpl. Mike Rodriguez said the girls wandered off voluntarily, and police do not believe any foul play was involved. No one will face criminal charges in the incident, Rodriguez added.

It is still important for the public, however, to be vigilant in missing person cases until the cases are resolved.

"Anything could have been the cause for a person to go missing, including foul play or mental status," said Rodriguez. "We have parents and family members concerned whenever someone leaves unannounced, so it's something we should all be concerned with."
