Police have confirmed that a teenage boy who went missing from his Churchlands school on Thursday morning has been found safe and well.
A spokesperson earlier said Police held concerns for the welfare of 14-year-old Sunny Neil Boyd Moffat. He was located just before 5pm.
Sunny’s relieved father, Wayne Moffat, thanked WA Police and “the overwhelming support from the general public.”
Mr Moffat said Sunny had Type 1 diabetes and he had feared his son could have fallen unconscious without access to his insulin.
In a plea for help on a community Facebook page, he said the boy had walked out of Churchlands Senior High School just before midday and had been missing ever since.
“Sunny has Type 1 diabetes and hasn’t had food since 7.46 this morning and has none of his communications or diabetes tracking devices with him,” Mr Moffat wrote.
“He was last seen in school uniform, teal polo shirt and long navy trousers.
“Police are searching the area of Churchlands, Wembley and Scarborough. He may be unconscious, if you see him, please call 000.”
Police said Sunny was described as having brown hair, with a medium build.
