Police say:Carlee Russell admits disappearance, 'missing child' reported on Alabama highway, a hoax

Russell was reported missing off a highway in a Birmingham suburb on the night of July 13 after calling 911 to report a toddler walking along the interstate, according to the Hoover Police Department. She returned home on foot on July 15.
