John Carter Kean, 16, was last seen in Fairhope, Alabama, on July 20. He was last seen at his mother’s home, and she woke up to a note that said, "I'm leaving for New York."
Kean was spotted at a Greyhound bus stop in Mobile, Alabama. Surveillance cameras captured the teen at the ticket counter wearing a NASA sweater and a beanie and carrying luggage. Kean said an employee recognized the teen and said he bought a ticket to Houston.
Kean was found safe Saturday afternoon, officials confirmed. No other details were released on where he was found but that it was a "dynamic situation," officials said.
