A 14-year-old American boy who went missing after docked in Germany has been found safe after disembarking from a cruise ship, authorities said Saturday.
Local police said Aydin Braun was found unharmed at about 10pm in the city of Brandenburg, more than two hours from where he went missing in the port city of Rostock-Warnemunde on Thursday.
Brown was last seen disembarking from the Caribbean Princess cruise ship shortly after it docked in Warnemunde port on July 4. Police previously said Brown had been on the cruise with his grandmother when the two got into an argument, leading to Brown disembarking the ship.
Princess previously told Fox News Digital that they were working with local police to search for Brown after he disembarked “unescorted.”

Concerns over Brown’s whereabouts grew after her family posted on social media after she left the ship, saying she “may have been lured away” in her “worst nightmare”.
