Police sent out an alert regarding Markell Keith Barnhart shortly after 6 p.m., saying he was last seen near Comstock Park High School. Officials were concerned about his well-being because Barnhart is autistic, diabetic and requires several medications throughout the day.

An alert was sent to media shortly after 7 p.m. that Barnhart was located, though no further details were released.
