A Vernal man missing since Tuesday was found in downtown Salt Lake City Friday afternoon.

Salt Lake City Police detective Jeff Bedard said the "attempt to locate" order that had been issued for 19-year-old Brandon Johns, who is slightly autistic, had been canceled. Bedard had no further details. Johns left his home on a bicycle Tuesday night following a disagreement with his sister. Authorities since learned that his ATM card had been used to withdraw money from at least two locations in Salt Lake City. Johns is mildly autistic.
