Police say they received several calls Thursday morning from people who thought they had seen Jackson in Indianapolis. Her location was around 2pm and her ID was fingerprinted.
A spokesperson for the Indianapolis FBI said the Columbus Police Department was the lead agency and the Cincinnati FBI office was handling the case.
Kason’s parents were informed of Jackson’s arrest. Now that Jackson has crossed state lines, Columbus Police say this could “absolutely” be a federal investigation.
