Illinois Authorities cancelled an Amber alert issued for a 5-year-old girl who was kidnapped by her grandmother late Sunday.
Makayla Christy was found unharmed with her grandmother about 8:40 a.m. in a motel in the outskirts of Granite City, Ill., where she’d been taken from her mother the previous evening.
The 44-year-old grandmother, Deborah McFadden, was being interviewed by authorities and may face kidnapping charges, police said.
Authorities initially believed she was heading for Texas because she drove away with Makayla in a Mercury Sable bearing a Texas license number.
“We traced the call to a motel and found them there,” Miller said. “We arrested the grandmother and returned the girl to her mother.”

Boyfriend last heard from her Monday night
Rob Allen, 32, of Margate, Kesse’s boyfriend of one year, told the Associated Press he spoke with her by phone about 10 p.m. Monday, when she said she was in bed and going to sleep.
When he did not receive a phone call or text message from her on Tuesday morning – her usual practice – he called and got her voice mail, Allen said. Later, her parents told him she had not arrived at work, he said.
“She’s not that kind of person, to just walk off. She’s very responsible,” Allen said.
Allen said that her cell phone and purse were missing from her apartment.
