FDLE: Missing Clewiston 16-year-old found safe

UPDATE 9:06 p.m.: Breanna Graham, 16, has been found and is alive and safe, according to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement.

Brandon Sheldon has been arrested in Crystal Springs, Florida, according to Graham’s mother.

CLEWISTON, Fla.- A Florida missing child alert has been issued for 16-year-old Breanna Graham last seen near the 800 block of Redish Circle in Clewiston.

The child may be in the company of 30-year-old Brandon Sheldon. Deborah Reese, Graham’s mother, says her daughter was in an online relationship with Sheldon and the two had been planning to run away for weeks.

“I think he has her somewhere,” Reese said. “I don’t know if she’s hurt, I mean she’s 16 so she might have went willingly but he told her through these texts everything a 16-year-old would hear.”

Graham is described as being around 5 feet tall, 130 pounds, with light reddish brown hair, blue eyes, and a small scar under her eye.

Authorities describe Sheldon as being 6 feet 3 inches tall, approximately 240 pounds, with brown hair, brown eyes and scruffy facial hair.

Graham and Sheldon may be traveling towards the Tampa area in a 1992 Ford F-150 pick-up truck, white in color, with burgundy pin-stripe, Florida Tag GZNP47.

If you have any information on the whereabouts of Graham or Sheldon, contact the Hendry County Sheriff’s Office at 863-674-5600 or 911.
