DES MOINES, Iowa — The Polk County Sheriff's Office has located a runaway teenager from the Des Moines area after he was reported missing on Friday.
Lucieus Lowell-Carroll, 13, was last seen in the 2900 block of Northeast 49th Avenue around 3:30 p.m.
The Polk County Sheriff's Office said Lowell-Carroll was found around 10:30 p.m. Sunday and is safe.
"We are in the process of reuniting him with his guardian," the sheriff's office said in a statement.
Lucieus' foster mom, Jaylynn Henry, said one moment he was home, and the next he was gone.
"[He] got in trouble [Friday] and was out front cussing, and so I grounded [him] and made him come inside," she said. "And I told them to get their showers, and the next thing I knew he was gone."
