More than eight years after he was reported missing as a Houston 18 year old, a Texas man was found alive this weekend - with cuts, bruises and blood in his hair.
Rudolph Rudy Farias IV was last seen on March 6, 2015, according to the National Missing and Unidentified Persons System (NamUs). He was 18, according to NamUs.
At the time he went missing, the group said Farias was walking his dogs in a neighborhood in northeast Houston.
On Saturday, the Texas Center for the Missing said Farias had been "located safe" and was recovering in a hospital, the nonprofit said in a statement on Twitter.
“Please continue to keep his family in your prayers as Rudy recovers in the hospital,” the Texas center said on Twitter.
