A 14-year-old teenager was found in Nizhny Novgorod Region, whom volunteers, police, and concerned citizens had been searching for 10 days. This was reported by the search organizers.
The schoolboy was last seen on Sunday, July 12. At around 5:30 p.m., he left home at 20 Chapaeva Street in the settlement of Krasnye Baki (Nizhny Novgorod Region) and had not returned since.
As NN.RU was told by the PSO «Volonter» (Volunteer Search and Rescue Squad), the search for the child was stopped because he had been found. Relatives sent a notification about this — the boy came home on his own.
In local social media groups, it was also reported that the teenager might have run away due to beatings and conflicts with his grandmother. However, the exact reasons for the child’s flight have not yet been established, and according to volunteers, the young man’s relationship with his relative was normal.
Earlier, in the Nizhny Novgorod Region, the body of a 30-year-old man was found who had floated away on a raft and disappeared in the Varnavinsky District. More details were reported in a previous article.
