However, deputies continue to search for the missing 16-year-old girl, whom they believe might be in the Oak City or Rocky Mount area. Bryant refused on Thursday to go home or to talk to law enforcement officers, they said.
Bryant was reported missing Wednesday night. She was last seen wearing a zip-up burgundy hoodie with a burgundy T-shirt, blue jeans and white-and-blue tennis shoes.
She has medium brown skin and is 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighs 140 pounds.
