Ibraheem Yazeed has been arrested and charged with first-degree kidnapping in the disappearance of 19-year-old Aniah Blanchard, a student at Southern Union State Community College, according to Kirsten Fiscus of the Montgomery Advertiser.
Blanchard is the stepdaughter of UFC heavyweight fighter Walt Harris.
Yazeed, 29, was booked into the Escambia County (Florida) jail early Friday morning, per Fiscus. Escambia County sheriff's deputies and U.S. Marshals apprehended the Yazeed, who was near the Pine Forest Road and Interstate 10 intersection just east of the Alabama-Florida border.
