US kidnap victim Gina DeJesus gives the thumbs up on her return home as her aunt thanks the community for all their support.

Gina DeJesus, 23, was rushed into the home she had not seen in nine years, clenched in a tight embrace by her sister Mayra. DeJesus hid her face in a yellow hoodie but raised her hand in a thumbs-up sign to the crowd that was chanting "Gina. Gina."

"There are not enough words to say or express the joy that we feel for the return of our family member Gina, and now Amanda Berry, her daughter and Michelle Knight who is our family also," DeJesus' aunt Sandra Ruiz said outside the house.

"I want to say thank you, but I'm also going to put my foot down as the mean one of the family," she said. "We are asking for your support to be patient with us. Give us time and privacy to heal. When we're ready, I promise every single one of you guys that we'll talk to you."

Berry, 27, and her daughter, Gina DeJesus, 23, and Michelle Knight, 32, were rescued from a home on Seymour Avenue, Cleveland on Monday, around ten years after they disappeared in separate incidents.

The occupant of the house, a 52-year-old former school bus driver of Puerto Rican origin, Ariel Castro, has been detained, along with his brothers, Pedro, 54, and Onil, 50. They are expected to be charged later in the day.
