The Oklahoma City Police Department has successfully located 13-year-old Cameron Beals after he was reported missing on Sunday evening. An alert, now canceled, had previously described the missing boy as being last seen around 5:00 p.m. near his home on the 18800 block of April Dr. in Oklahoma City. FOX25 originally reported Beals as 4'9" with blond hair, brown eyes, and glasses.

Following a search effort, Beals was found safe and unharmed, prompting authorities to cancel the missing and endangered alert. The details of how and where the child was found has not been disclosed by the police, maintaining the privacy of the young boy and his family. News9 confirmed the cancelation of the alert through a statement by the police department.

KOCO had reported on the incident and, following standard protocols in cases involving minors, has since removed personal information about Beals after he was found. The community, while relieved at the outcome, remains sensitive to the lasting effects that such a brief but intense period of uncertainty can have on a family. KOCO updated their article to reflect the resolution of the search.
