RCMP in British Columbia say they've found the family of a boy who was found barefoot and wandering alone in Whistler over the weekend.
Mounties in Whistler say they responded to a report of an unaccompanied child, who they believed was about 12-years old, on Saturday night at Dairy Queen on Main Street.
Police said the boy was barefoot and described him as “completely non-verbal.”
They issued a public appeal on Sunday as they tried to locate the boy's family and reported success hours later.
Staff Sgt. Kris Clark issued a statement saying Mounties had located the family and they would be reuniting them with the boy shortly, but offered no other details.
Clark thanked the public and the media for helping to make the reunion possible.
