A Mattie’s Call was cancelled after a missing 19-year-old man with diminished mental capacity was found safe, Atlanta police said.

Jashua “Joshua” Sullivan had last been seen by his mother in the 800 block of Rock Street on Saturday around 3 p.m., she told police. A family acquaintance said he saw Sullivan around 7 p.m. at the Inman Park MARTA station.

Sullivan has disappeared before and usually needs help from authorities or a family member to get home, police said.

He was found in southeast Atlanta and taken home Sunday afternoon, police said.
