He was subsequently removed from the NCIC database, and is no longer considered a missing person.

She stated that she had not seen or heard from him for several months. While there is currently no specific reason to believe he is in imminent danger, his grandmother did share some factors from his personal history that lead her to be concerned for his overall welfare.
