“Yes, it is good news! He has been found and I am very relieved,” said William Kolstedt, his brother, who lives in Buffalo, Mo.
Cole said plans are being made for Kolstedt to be reunited with his family.
Kolstead’s brother did not offer an explanation as to why his brother was in Seattle or why his car was left at NKU.
The Facebook page, “Find James Kolstedt,” showed an outpouring of thanksgiving.
Others left comments indicating their confusion.
“Still unsure of why they conducted a search for a 19 yr old who was “missing” for less than 24 hours? I’m not trying to be rude, just confused,” someone wrote.
Another poster wrote: “Well since he’s apparently fine, I say he keeps riding the wind.”
