Actress Jaida Benjamin has been found days after she was reported missing.
A rep for the Los Angeles Police Department confirmed to PEOPLE that Benjamin, 27, was found on Tuesday. She was discovered at Colfax Avenue and Ventura Boulevard, which is located within Los Angeles’ Studio City neighborhood. Her family has since been notified.

In a statement obtained by PEOPLE, Benjamin’s mother said the star is “resting and being evaluated for treatment at this time.”
“She was located last night at 2:30 a.m. We are overjoyed and relieved! The stress has been out of this world,” JoCinda added. “I wouldn’t wish this amount of anguish on any parent or loved one. The country needs to do its due diligence to take better care of those battling mental illness. There’s too much red tape to go through just to get immediate assistance and support.”
Benjamin primarily built up her acting résumé with TV roles, including on Disney Channel shows Liv and Maddie, Austin & Ally and Stuck in the Middle. She has also made appearances on Family Reunion, Insecure and the Mad About You revival.

Earlier this month, Benjamin’s mother revealed that the pair have chosen to take a break from the entertainment industry.
“In light of the recent tragic news of multiple suicides, combined with our own mental health concerns, Jaida and I have decided to take a much-needed hiatus from the entertainment industry,” the statement on Instagram read. “[My company] Momager On-Set will continue to provide consulting and permit support, however, guardian and transportation service will be limited.”
Added JoCinda, “We truly appreciate everyone’s love & support over the years and ask for prayers and positive thoughts during this challenging time.”
