West Valley City police have found a 14-year-old autistic boy who went missing Sunday afternoon.



Gage Gordon was found safe and returned to his family late Sunday night, police confirmed early Monday morning.

He had left a store in South Salt Lake at noon and was last seen about 3 p.m. on a home security camera riding a white BMX bike in the area of 3700 South and 1200 West in West Valley City, near his home.

WVCPD spokeswoman Roxeanne Vainuku said Gordon was located at a TRAX light rail station by police in neighboring South Salt Lake about 10:40 p.m. Sunday.



“He said he had spent his time going to various parks throughout the day,” she said.
