A 14-year-old Murfreesboro boy who left home Sunday with bags and his guitar was safely located on Nov. 10, 2026. Henry James Oswald was reported missing by his mother.

The Murfreesboro TN Police Department shared a missing-teen alert, describing Oswald as 5 feet 4 inches tall and weighing approximately 118 pounds, with strawberry-blond hair. He was last seen wearing an olive-green sweatshirt, black sweatpants and black Converse shoes, per the department's post.

Police say Oswald left home on Nov. 8 carrying his bags and the guitar, though the circumstances surrounding his departure have not been detailed publicly. The department's post states that he has been entered into NCIC as missing, while a report from Rutherford Source says he was entered into the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children database as missing. The two accounts differ on which system logged his case.

The BOLO was canceled after Oswald was safely located on Nov. 10, 2026.
