ELMWOOD, Okla. (AP) -- An 18-year-old girl who has been missing from her Oklahoma Panhandle home for about three days was found unharmed at a neighbor's house early Saturday.

Rebecca Skipper of Elmwood left her home Wednesday evening. Jessica Brown, a spokeswoman for the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation, sats extensive land and air searches by law enforcement authorities in Beaver County produced no traces of her.

Brown says the girl was found alone at a neighbor's house about 6:30 a.m. She says a barking dog alerted neighbors to her.

Brown says the girl appeared to be unharmed and has been returned to her family. Authorities have described her as mentally challenged with the mental capabilities of a fourth grader.

Brown says law enforcement authorities are continuing their investigation.
