A man reported missing earlier this week and who authorities asked the public to help look for has contacted his family.
Demarco Porter, 39, of 80 Suffolk Drive No. 99, was reported missing Tuesday. Family members who filed the report said they had last seen him on June 11, Lowndes County Sheriff’s Office investigator Brent Swan said.
In an email released to media Wednesday morning, Swan said Porter reached out to members of his family, and LCSO no longer considers him a missing person.
