POLICE CONFIRM MISSING MMS STUDENT INCIDENT

We first told you Wednesday about the Maplewood Middle School student who was missing and later found on school grounds with a teacher who apparently did not tell administrators before they called police.

The Maplewood Police issued this report late Friday on the incident confirming our reporting:

On 07-23-14 at 0937 hours MPD units respond to the Maplewood Middle School on a
report from the school principal that a 12 year old student had walked off of school
property after becoming upset in class.

MPD units searched the area for the juvenile with negative results.  At
approximately 1100 hours the school principal called MPD and stated that the
juvenile was found in the company of another teacher. It was further reported that
it was now unclear if the juvenile ever actually left the building.
