Missing Utah teen rescued after asking 'Among Us' player for help

SLC Scoop StaffUPDATED

A missing Utah teenager was rescued after nearly 18 months when she reached out to another minor through the video game Among Us. Kylie Arellano, 17, disappeared in May 2025 and was allegedly held captive in Oregon by a man she met online. After Kylie shared her situation with another player, the player’s mother contacted the FBI, helping investigators locate and rescue her on November 1. Adam Hunter Harmel, 39, was arrested and faces a federal charge related to transporting a minor across state lines for illegal sexual activity. Court documents also allege physical and sexual abuse during her captivity.
