Cole Davison, 17, missing from Needham, Massachusetts since Wednesday, has been found safe and is receiving hospital care.

Cole Davison, a 17-year-old Needham high school senior, disappeared on Wednesday night from his home in the affluent Boston suburb. An emergency alert about his disappearance was issued Thursday morning, prompting police to launch an extensive search.

The search effort included Metro-LEC Search and Rescue teams, K9 dog searchers and drone units. Police deployed thermal imaging technology and asked members of the public not to join the search, as their presence could interfere with the equipment and delay efforts. Police said there was 'no indication he is armed, he has made no threats toward anyone, and there is no known danger to the public.'

Davison was found safe on Friday in Needham. The exact circumstances of how he was found remain unclear. The Needham Police Department said it was 'incredibly relieved and happy' he had been located. He is receiving care from medical professionals at a local hospital.
