While police combed the neighborhood, Ramos’ concerned family launched a social media campaign to raise awareness and urged people to come forward with any information that would lead to his whereabouts.

Nearly three days after his disappearance, a Facebook post from a friend of the missing person confirmed that Alex Ramos was found alive. The post read:

“Alex Ramos has been found but he is needing a lot of healing and prayers his way.”

Following an extensive search, Ramos was found alive on Wednesday. However, the circumstances behind his disappearance remain unclear.
