The 14-year-old girl who reported yesterday that she was abducted and now admits she fabricated the story may face legal consequences.
Batavia Police investigators are continuing their investigation, trying to determine where she was and what she was doing during the hours she first reported she had been taken by a black man driving a black minivan.
In a statement from the Batavia Police Department late this afternoon, officials say, "at this time, the cause of the report is being investigated, and once complete, will be referred to the Genesee County Attorney for any further appropriate actions."
Because she is a juvenile, it would be up to County Attorney Charles Zambito to handle the case, rather than the District Attorney's Office, according to police spokesman Eric Hill.
