PLEASANT GROVE — Police have found a 19-year-old man with "multiple special needs" who went missing from Pleasant Grove since Sunday evening, Utah County Sheriff's Office dispatch said.

KSL.com received a tip stating that Tyler Crawford had made it home safely, and it was confirmed by Utah County Sheriff's Office dispatch Monday evening.

Crawford went missing at around 7 p.m. Sunday when police said that he planned to go to Kiwanis Park near Battlecreek Falls, and then go to Provo.

Crawford wears glasses and is deaf. He wears a ruby red cochlear implant to hear, but police had said the battery of his implant could be dead soon if not already. He also has multiple fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, including taking on a cat personality where he "crawls around, hisses, meows like a cat and likes being with real cats," police said.
