Man charged after kidnapping 11-year-old girl he met on Instagram

GEORGIA- Police have arrested a man who they say kidnapped a girl he met on Instagram.

Keith Greene, 27, was arrested on Saturday and charged with kidnapping a child under the age of 13, luring or enticing a child and custody interference, the Orlando Sentinel reports.

The girl was reported missing on Saturday in Georgia, and was found hours later in Florida with Greene, as they were both in his vehicle.

The victims mother read some of her messages on Instagram, and was able to provide police with a photo of Greene.

Authorities say that Greene groomed the 11-year-old over Instagram, telling her that he was risking his life to be with her, and that they would hide their relationship, by telling people he was her uncle.

Greene’s arrest warrant also states that he told the young girl they would have to “lay low” for about 7 or 8 years.
