The Canadian Press, 23 Jul, 2016 02:03 PM

SURREY, B.C. — Surrey RCMP say they have found a 12-year-old boy who went missing on Thursday afternoon.

Mounties had asked the public for help finding John Komagum after his parents reported him missing.

RCMP said the boy had an argument with his parents and left home upset, and they thought he went to a friend's house.

But when he didn't return home, his parents went out searching for him and called police when they couldn't find him.

Mounties announced Friday morning that Komagum had been found safe.

No further details were released.
