French teen managed to escape 'several kidnappers' and hide in takeaway

The teen is a regular runner and left her home in the village of Saint-Brice for the local Bellebranche forest.

A teenage jogger who went missing for over 24 hours has told French authorities that she was kidnapped by several people.

The 17-year-old girl left her home on Monday at around 4pm and was not seen again until 8pm the following day when she appeared at a takeaway about 10km from where she had gone running.
