  • Public Safety

Ethan Kelly is back home safe in Lansdale.

Kelly, 15, was reported missing from his Lansdale home on Friday. He had voluntarily left his home and had been on the run since.

Kelly's father, Nicholas Ventresca, updated North Penn Now and the community that Kelly returned home on Monday evening.

There was no information given as to Kelly's whereabouts over the weekend.

When he went missing, Kelly was wearing black sweatpants, a dark-colored hoodie, with a T-shirt and grey Crocs. Sightings were reported at the Montgomery Mall, though Kelly ran upon noticing he’d been spotted.

Ventresca said Kelly did not want to be found and will keep running.  

Hiding an underage minor is a punishable offense, and Ventresca had said that charges can be filed if they find others were helping him.
