She was receiving medical care after vanishing on Monday in the Mayenne region, east of Rennes. French media reports say she told police she had been held captive by kidnappers but managed to flee.

The teenager, a regular runner who has not been named, left her home for the local Bellebranche forest at around 16:00 on Monday.(BBC)…[+]
