Father Of Missing Son Speaks To KPEL

Steve Bond and his wife, both of Alabama, brought their son Justin to New Beginnings in Opelousas for substance abuse problems, admitting him on December 27th. That was the last time Steve says he saw Justin. He says Justin ran away from the center Friday with another boy Skylar, who Justin met there. Bond believes the two boys may have run away to Monroe where the other boy Skylar is from, but he's not sure. He says he and his wife just want their son back.

Justin is 5'11", 145 pounds with shoulder length brown hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a black jacket, red t-shirt, black sweatpants and purple shoes. Call the Opelousas Police Department if you have any information.
