UPDATE: Thanks to your help JD has been found safe and sound. His mother Tanya Russell thanks everyone for spreading the word and bringing her son home.

A Rome mother is looking for her teenaged son. 15 year old Jeffrey Larsen, who goes by JD, was last seen Tuesday, January 26th.

Tanya Russell says her son ran away from a group home in Utica and made it to Rome. "There was one lead that he was by Liberty Gardens in Rome but nothing since. We're not even sure if it was him. No one has seen or heard from him since."

Tanya has reported her son missing to police and is turning her search to Facebook to spread the word. "It's winter. He shouldn't be outside in this weather. I just want to know he's safe," she says.

JD was last seen wearing a black Virginia tech hoodie, brown cargo pants and black and white Nike sneakers.

If you have any information on JD's whereabouts, you're asked to Tanya at 315-271-0023 or 315-832-6795 or Rome Police at 315-339-7780.
