Missing teen found safe.

************************************************************************************************************

Police are searching for a missing teen who his parents say was not in the home when they woke up Sunday morning.

Parents say 15-year-old Ethan Allan Fay was last seen near his home in Santa Clara around midnight.

Fay is a student at Snow Canyon Middle School. He is 5’9″ tall and has blonde hair.

Family friend Nonie Klingonsmith said friends and family believe this is a missing persons case and not necessarily a runaway teenager.

Police are searching from Santa Clara to Hurricane as Fay has a number of friends across the Southern Utah valley.

Teams are searching potential places where runaway teenagers have been located in the past and will begin visiting the homes of Fay’s friends once they have confirmation he is not at his girlfriend’s home.
