Missing Pitt student found among the homeless in Montana

PITTSBURGH (AP) — A University of Pittsburgh student last seen in April was found apparently living among homeless people in Montana, authorities said.

When a ranger at Glacier National Park came across several people Thursday and asked for their identification, one of them was Pranesh Patel, said Pittsburgh police Lt. Daniel Herrmann.

The ranger ran Patel’s name through the National Crime Information Center and was alerted to a missing persons report filed May 2 by Patel’s brother. The ranger alerted Pittsburgh police, who notified Patel’s family.
