UPDATE: The autistic Burien teenager reported as missing in White Center turns out to have been safe after all, at Harborview Medical Center. King County Sheriff’s Office Sgt. John Urquhart tells WSB that the 15-year-old was found on a roadside by someone late this morning, and was actually at Harborview Medical Center long before everyone realized he was the boy that KCSO asked the public to help find. So bottom line, he’s OK. Our original story is after the jump:
Just in case he has headed this way … we are crossposting this story that is already up on our White Center site: A search is under way for 15-year-old Frank Nguyen, described as autistic and all but unable to communicate, last seen this morning at Evergreen Aquatic Center in White Center, about a mile from his home in Burien. The King County Sheriff’s Office says: “Frank is about 160 lbs., 5’ 7” and medium build. He was wearing a BB hat, white polo shirt with a long sleeve shirt underneath and blue jeans.” KCSO asks that you call 911 if you see him.
