MISSING PERSONS LOCATED BY FAMILY MEMBERS

Bensalem Township Police and the family of Bridget and Danielle Hennigan received numerous tips regarding sightings of their loved ones.  Many of them were centered around JFK Boulevard in Philadelphia.

The family went to the area of 21st and JFK Boulevard to help with the search. While looking in an area of bushes, family members located Bridget and Danielle.  Both had minor injuries to their feet from walking barefoot through Philadelphia since last evening.  They were taken to Lower Bucks Hospital for evaluation and treatment and will return home with their family once that is complete.

The Bensalem Township Police Department and the Hennigan family would like to thank the public for sharing these posts on social media and providing tips that led to them locating Bridget and Danielle.  The power of social media and news media brought this incident to a happy conclusion.
