A St. Paul family is grieving after Aaron Jalil Allen, who had been missing, was found dead Sunday, police said.

His family said in a post on the “Finding Aaron Allen” Facebook page that Allen had died by suicide.

He was 18 when he disappeared last weekend. His 19th birthday was Thursday.

Family and friends rallied in their efforts to find him, posting missing persons flyers and using the Facebook page to spread the word about his disappearance, according to his mother, Chauntyll Allen.

Allen, who graduated from Central High School in 2017, has been a mentor and previously worked for Cycles for Change. He had worked at FedEx, his mother said.
