Johnson went missing twice in January, turning heads in the first occurrence when he was found upstate in a pickup truck. According to what Johnson’s mother told News 6 partner WJXT-TV, he ran away because he didn’t want to do his homework.
He went missing again nine days after he was found, but was found safe the same evening.
