Search for missing 6-year-old out of Brighton ends after boy found in house

BOSTON — The search for a missing 6-year-old boy in Brighton has ended after the child was found hiding in his house on Fidelis Way, the boy’s grandmother confirmed to Boston 25 News.

Police were initially searching for Gianni Gonzalez after they were informed he had gone missing near 5 p.m. on Saturday. Police say he had last been seen wearing a dark blue coat and gray sweatpants along with black and navy blue Nike sneakers.

Anyone who had any information on Gonzalez’s whereabouts was asked to call 911.

A previous version of this story incorrectly stated that the missing 6-year-old child was a girl. It has been correctly edited to show that Gianni Gonzalez is a boy.
