Two 15-year-old Geneva girls missing since Wednesday were found safe about 1 a.m. Monday, Geneva police reported.One of the girls was brought in by "a concerned citizen" who knew the teenager and was able to persuade her to be taken to the Police Department, said Geneva Police Cmdr. Eric Passarelli. Police found the other girl at a St. Charles home, Passarelli said.Authorities returned both girls to their families, said Passarelli, who added that the teenagers have not told authorities details of their unaccounted time away from home. Police are determining whether to file criminal charges, Passarelli said.  Thjis is all according to the Chicaog Tribune.  Obviously, it looks like a runaway situation, but at least it isn't something more tragic. Earlier this week, I wrote a post:  The fo...
