MISSING BOY FOUND AT BROOKLYN SHELTER
BRONX — A MISSING BOY WITH AUTISM WAS FOUND safe at a youth shelter in Brooklyn, reports PIX News, after a search that lasted more than two weeks. Jason Ramirez, age 15, who lives in the Bronx, was reported missing after walking out of his school in the middle of the day on Oct. 4 and was last seen boarding and then exiting a city bus five blocks from the school; Ramirez’ mother told PIX that her son had been treated at Bellevue under another name before being sent to the Brooklyn shelter where he was eventually found.
She also told the news channel that her son had been bullied by other children in the school about riding yellow school buses prior to his disappearance: “He said he got overwhelmed by the kids bothering him.”
