A Texan who went missing in 2015 has been found in a church 13 km from the Houston location where he previously lived, reports NBC News.
The man, who was a teenager last seen, disappeared while walking his two dogs. One of the dogs came back off-leash the same night he disappeared and the other the day after.
Eight years later, the man was found on Thursday and has been reunited with his family, who say he is not talking or responding to calls.
– My son is receiving the care he needs to treat his trauma, but at this time he is not able to speak and cannot communicate with us, the man’s mother told NBC.

Wednesday’s Koran burning outside a mosque in Stockholm has been condemned by several countries and also the Swedish Foreign Ministry.
But the condemnation has also received criticism from several quarters.
Now Foreign Minister Tobias Billström is speaking out about it.
“It is important that we always stand up for the basic principle of freedom of expression in Sweden. But freedom of speech goes both ways and what is legal is not always appropriate. Therefore, it was obvious for the government to condemn the Koran burnings,” he writes The Express.
He writes about the Foreign Ministry’s statement:
“It is politics that aims at nothing other than to calm the situation.”

Biden lost big yesterday and you didn’t want to answer.
Today he lost again in the Supreme Court regarding student loans.
The question is, why don’t you want Swedes to find out when it goes against Biden?
The Nicklas diver
That HD makes decisions regarding American universities, which Biden is critical of, doesn’t perhaps feel very interesting to us here in Sweden?
But here you can read a bit about it, if you want 🙂
A rose to Aftonbladet’s columnists!
Wolfgang Hansson and Johanna Fränden for example, there are several who are very good!
Write directly and honestly about what everyone thinks, but no one dares to say/write and are comfortably freed from fear that not everyone will like them. Strong!
It’s called cilvilcourage, a way of being that I thought was practically extinct.

What a nice tribute Astrid!
They will probably be very happy about it 💛
