Former Student Who Vanished At Graduation Time Is Found Safe
STATE COLLEGE, Pa. (AP) - A man who disappeared after apparently leaving Penn State without telling his parents has been found safe and sound.
Authorities had said earlier that Jon Steindorf's parents went to pick him up Friday for what they thought would be his graduation. But he wasn't at his apartment and wouldn't answer his cellphone.
Police in State College say the 23-year-old Steindorf was spotted by a former classmate Monday and driven home to his family. Lt. Keith Robb says he "just needed a timeout."
His parents say Steindorf told them he had finished his studies in the fall and delayed his graduation until spring. They later found that he wasn't on the list to graduate and apparently hadn't been enrolled in the fall.
Penn State says he also wasn't enrolled in the spring semester.
