ROCKINGHAM COUNTY, N.C. (WGHP) – Missing teenager William Alexander Benitez has been found in south Texas, according to Rockingham County Sheriff's investigators.

Benitez was found Thursday when Texas authorities reportedly stopped a car in Galveston in which Benitez was riding. The person believed to have kidnapped the teenager got away.

Texas investigators said it took them several days to figure out Benitez's identity because of his immigration status.

Rockingham County investigators believe robbery may have been the motive for the kidnapping.
