Boy with autism who disappeared years ago, found alive in Utah | Abroad

This is reported by the local authorities. Officers found Connerjack Oswalt in Summit County after someone reported a man sleeping outside a gas station. After taking him and scanning his fingerprints, police managed to identify him as a person reported missing in 2019 in Clearlake, California.

Oswalt’s family spent years searching for him, distributing flyers and scouring social media. According to local media, the family even moved to his hometown, Idaho Falls, in the hopes that he would eventually return there.

Oswalt, who was diagnosed with autism, was 17 when he left the family’s home in Clearlake. His mother, Suzanne Flint, remembered making quesadillas, but when it was time for lunch, he was gone. “There hasn’t been a day that I wasn’t looking for him,” the mother told American media.

The details of Oswalt’s disappearance and his whereabouts in recent years are currently under investigation by police.
