Oct. 19 update: In an updated news release Sunday night, State College police said that Dominik Caesar has been located.

State College police are asking for the public’s help in locating a teenage boy who was last seen Thursday in College Township.

Dominik Caesar, 15, was last seen in the area of Penn Hills Park, where police said he ran off from his brother.

Dominik is described as 5 feet, 7 inches tall and between 175-185 pounds. He was last seen wearing black sweatpants, a gray sweatshirt and black and gray sneakers, according to a Sunday press release from State College police that described him as a “missing/runaway juvenile.”

According to a post about Dominik circulating on social media, he went missing at about 5 p.m. Thursday and had told a friend earlier in the day about “going to hang out and meet up at the downtown college area.”

“His family is extremely worried and wants him home,” the post reads.

Anyone with information on his whereabouts is urged to contact the State College Police Department at 814- 234-7150, by email at police@statecollegepa.us or by sending an anonymous tip online.
