“She has been found. That’s all we have for now. Thank you to everyone. And I mean everyone who helped in the process,” he wrote.
“Thanks for all the messages call and most of all PRAYERS. Journey home starts soon,” he added.
Sarah Swindell, Brenna’s mother, also wrote that Brenna’s ex-boyfriend Morgan Guidry, who she was last seen with, was also found.
The Austin Police Department Missing Persons Unit said she was last seen at Poodies Hilltop Bar in Spicewood, according to FOX 7 Austin.
Greg and Sarah Swindell have shared updates on their Facebook pages since their daughter’s disappearance. Her vehicle had allegedly been spotted in Colorado and possibly Idaho.

Brenna Swindell was described as a 5-foot-4-inch White female who weighs about 140 pounds. She has brown hair and brown eyes along with tattoos on both of her arms.
Swindell was last seen on Aug. 22 before she was found Tuesday.
The Austin American-Statesman reported that an affidavit for an arrest warrant was filed against Guidry on Friday over allegations from July that he strangled his girlfriend and slammed her head onto the floor. Travis County Sheriff’s Office spokesperson Kristen Dark told the newspaper that the victim was Swindell.

Dark told the newspaper that the affidavit was filed a month after the incident because Swindell decided on Aug. 20 to press charges against him.

Five adults arrested in the smash-and-grab robbery of a Manhattan Beach jewelry store earlier this year will spend multiple years in prison, police said.
The incident took place on March 22, when multiple armed suspects also carrying hammers entered the Pasha Fine Jewelry store on Manhattan Beach Boulevard.
The suspects used the hammers to smash open display cases and take merchandise before fleeing to their getaway vehicles in a nearby alley, the Manhattan Beach Police Department stated in an Instagram post on Wednesday.
Authorities tracked down and arrested seven people, including five adults and two juveniles, in connection with the robbery while recovering two handguns and jewelry taken from the Pasha store.
The five adults accepted a plea bargain last Friday after multiple charges were filed against them.
“Under the plea bargain, the five adults will serve time ranging from 3-16 years in state prison and receive a strike for their part in the robbery,” the Police Department stated in the post.
The adults were identified as 20-year-old Twuan Walker of Lancaster, 25-year-old Alan Daniels of Los Angeles, 24-year-old Eworth Sutherland of Los Angeles, 24-year-old Johndean Blocker of Los Angeles and 25-year-old Jamil Edwards of Los Angeles.
The two minors, both 17, had their cases previously adjudicated through the juvenile court system, police said.

Two Nevada men accused of damaging rock formations estimated to be 140 million years old at the Lake Mead National Recreation Area back in April are facing charges and potential prison time.
Wyatt Clifford Fain, 37, and Payden David Guy Cosper, 31, each face a federal indictment for one count of injury and depredation of government property and one count of aiding and abetting, The Associated Press reported.
A trial has been set for Oct. 8, and the men could each face up to 10 years in prison if convicted, the U.S. Department of Justice said.
Fain and Cosper, both of Henderson, were arrested by the U.S. Marshals Service and made their first court appearance on Friday. They both pleaded not guilty and were released on a personal recognizance bond, the Las Vegas Review-Journal reported.

The men allegedly can be seen on video posted to social media pushing boulders until they fell in front of a screaming little girl. That happened on April 7 on the Redstone Dunes Trail.
The trail is 1.1 miles round trip, according to the National Park Service (NPS). The rocks and caves in the area are a result of erosion and weathering.

“Over time, geological forces turned the loose dunes into hard sandstone,” the NPS website says.
The Lake Mead National Recreation Area, just outside of Las Vegas, draws around 6 million visitors every year and spans 2,344 square miles of mountains and desert canyons.

Authorities said staffing levels mean park officials often rely on the public to also keep watch over resources within park boundaries.
The damage as a result of the rock formations being pushed over a cliff edge is estimated at more than $1,000.
