TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - The mother of a woman who authorities say was kidnapped by her estranged husband says her daughter has been found alive near Tampa.

Donna Waryga tells the Tampa Bay Times (http://bit.ly/2nmbwGY ) that 37-year-old Alisa Summers "is safe and not harmed." Hillsborough County Sheriff David Gee has called a 1 p.m. news conference to provide updates.

Local news outlets report the Tampa mother of five was found in Ruskin, near Tampa on Monday morning.

Investigators say witnesses saw a woman whose hands were tied behind her back being forced into her SUV outside a Tampa pharmacy on Saturday night. The witnesses say the woman was screaming.

In a statement, deputies said Summers didn't return home after going to visit 39-year-old Trevor Steven Summers to talk about their marriage. They are separated and have restraining orders against each other.
