Missing Persons Turn Up In Newtown

On June 6, police found a 27-year-old man and his two male cousins, ages 15

and 6, who were reported to be missing from Cleveland.

Police did not disclose the identities of the three.

Police said the man had been driving from Cleveland and then became tired, so

he let the 15-year-old boy drive.

Police said they spotted the vehicle being driven erratically on Mile Hill

Road near Exit 11 of Interstate 84 about 10 pm and stopped it, finding that

the 15-year-old was behind the wheel. Cleveland police had posted a notice

that the three were missing.

The man was transported to Danbury Hospital for a medical condition, police

said. The two youths were held at the hospital for safekeeping.

The three were later released from the hospital. Family members left Ohio to

retrieve the missing persons, police said.
