Bobby O'Leary, Santa Clara Man Missing For Weeks, Has Been Found Uninjured: Police

SANTA CLARA COUNTY, CA -- A man who went missing two weeks ago in Santa Clara was located Monday, police said.

According to Santa Clara police, 21-year-old Bobby O'Leary has been found and is uninjured. Although police gave no details on his whereabouts during the time he was missing, the San Jose Mercury News reported he had been in an Oakland hospital for much of the time.

O'Leary went missing around noon on April 11. He'd last been seen at 5453 Great America Parkway when he allegedly ran away after being contacted by security in the area, police said.

During his disappearance, over 950 people joined a Facebook group dedicated to locating Bobby, and more than $25,000 was raised to supplement law enforcement efforts to find him. The family also hired a private investigator.

O’Leary was found April 14 drifting in a boat near Alameda Island, according to Santa Clara police Lt. Dan Moreno, then was rescued by the Oakland Fire Department and transported to Highland Hospital in Alameda County. O’Leary was not badly injured, Moreno said.

He was reunited with family after a hospital worker eventually recognized him from news reports.

More details about O'Leary's whereabouts and condition were not immediately available from police, but this article will be updated as more information becomes known.
