A 19-year-old mentally disabled man, who went missing Thursday after his mother dropped him off at a North Las Vegas church to play basketball, was found today.

North Las Vegas resident Joseph Horlacher disappeared from a church near Civic Center Drive and Tonopah Avenue, said North Las Vegas Police Sgt. Chrissie Coon. Horlacher reportedly left the church with a friend and hadn’t been seen since.

According to family, he was unable to care for himself and required daily medication he did not have with him, Coon said.
