Nickelodeon actor, Drake Bell has been found safe hours after he was declared ‘missing’ and ‘endangered’ by police in Florida.
‘We can confirm law enforcement officials are in contact and Mr. Bell is safe,’ a spokesperson for the Daytona Beach Police said Thursday April 13.
Earlier on Thursday, the department announced on Facebook that Bell was missing and ‘endangered.’
Authorities added that the ‘Drake & Josh’ alum, 36, was last seen Wednesday evening just before 9 p.m. near Mainland High School in Daytona Beach, Fla.
However, he appeared to be having a normal day with his young son at SeaWorld in Orlando, Fla., just 24 hours before he went missing.
Police also did not mention whether Bell’s son was with him at the time he went missing.
There was no further information immediately on where he was found or why he was considered missing.
The 36-year-old actor, who starred with Josh Peck on Nickelodeon’s Drake & Josh from 2004-2007 — was previously sentenced to two years probation after pleading guilty in a case involving child endangerment and disseminating harmful material to minors.
The 36-year-old actor is best known for his role in ‘Drake & Josh,’ which was a huge hit for Nickelodeon from 2004 to 2007.
He has also appeared in a variety of shows in guest roles since then and has had a recurring voice role as Peter Parker/Spider-Man in animated shows.
