The Grade 8 student who was reported missing in Trece Martires, Cavite, on August 23 has been found.
In a Facebook post, Joena Quezon, mother of student Bobby Quezon Jr., confirmed that her son had been found.
“Hello po, good afternoon, nahanap na po si Bobby. Sa Rosario po siya nakita at sinundo,” she said.
He also thanked those who helped by sharing and commenting on his post on Tuesday, August 23.
“Maraming salamat po sa lahat ng tumulong, sa mga nagshare at comment, tumulong sa paghahanap, pati rin po sa mga sinama siya sa kanilang prayers. Salamat po siya Diyos at ligtas na siya. Salamat din po ulit sa inyo.”
The mother did not mention why the student was in Rosario, Cavite. However, in Cavite Connect’s Facebook post, Bobby was allegedly invited by his classmate to play a video game.
“Sa Panayam ng Cavite Connect sa Magulang ng nawawalang bata na si Bobby Quezon, sinabi nito na natagpuan ang kanyang anak sa Bayan ng Rosario Cavite ngayong umaga. Madumi ang damit at sa kubo umano natulog ang bata batay sa kwento nito sa kanya,” said Cavite Connect.
“Niyaya umano ang bata na maglaro ng video game ng kanyang kaibigan matapos magdeklara kahapon ng walang pasok. Laking pasasalamat naman ng magulang ng bata na ligtas at walang anumang sugat o galos ang bata.
“Pagsasabihan umano nila ang kanilang anak at mas babantayan pa ito upang hindi na maulit ang pangyayari,” it added.
