A 13-year-old boy missing since last week was found safely Monday night.

Monday afternoon, Edmonton police asked for the public’s help finding a 13-year-old who was reported missing on Friday.

He was last seen on Wednesday, Oct. 12 at Ottewell School in east Edmonton at around 3 p.m. The school is located at 94 Avenue and 73 Street.

Police said they were concerned about his welfare. On Monday evening, a patrol officer found the teen at a library, after someone who heard about the missing youth spotted him there and called police.

This isn’t the first time the Edmonton Police Service has asked for help finding the youth. Back in April, the then 12-year-old went missing for about 24 hours, after disappearing after school.
