Missing City Man Alive and Well in D.C.

The Williamsburg Police Department have located a mentally handicapped Williamsburg man who was reported missing last month in the Washington, D.C. area.

Police said 39-year-old Antonio Johnson contacted his family by phone on July 21 after not being in contact with them for about two months. Police confirmed his whereabouts Sunday.

Major Greg Riley of the Williamsburg Police Department said the officer who handled the case didn’t get much information from Johnson other than he was fine and healthy.

Johnson’s family contacted the police in June after he had not been seen by his family for a month and didn’t arrive when expected at his mother’s house off of Tam-O-Shanter Boulevard. Johnson’s family said it was unusual for him to be out of touch for long periods of time.
