Sources close to the investigation tell KDKA-TV's Ross Guidotti she was found in Michigan and is currently in a hospital undergoing evaluation.
Further details have not yet been released at this time.
Dixon had been missing since June 26. Stefanie Grantham, Dixon's mother, says she dropped Dixon off at the McDonald's in Allegheny Township where the teen works.
About 15 minutes later, Dixon was seen on video surveillance getting into a white Chrysler 300 in the parking lot. Her mother did not see or hear from Dixon after that.
It was believed that the person driving the car may have been a man Dixon met on the internet.
