CBC reported that "around 6:15, Sûreté du Québec officers from the Val-d'Or detachment found the girl, and the man suspected of abducting her, in a vehicle matching the description of the one sent out in the Amber Alert," according to Sergeant Jean-Raphaël Drolet.
"The suspect is being questioned by the SQ and the child was brought to a local hospital for an evaluation," Drolet told CBC.
