OXFORD (AP) — A Maine man who went missing after crashing his car last weekend was located about 150 miles away in Massachusetts.
Police say 24-year-old Gene Stanley Burns Jr. of Oxford was last seen Saturday night walking shortly after the crash.
Lt. Michael Ward says police sent him a text message asking his whereabouts, and he responded Tuesday to tell them he was in Abington, Mass., about 20 miles south of Boston, although he was unsure how he got there.
Police tell the Sun Journal his mother drove to Massachusetts to bring Burns home.
