Western, Pa. college freshman missing since last week

BEAVER FALLS, Pa. (AP) — Police say a college freshman hasn’t been seen since he walked away from a building at his western Pennsylvania school last week.

Officials at Geneva College say 18-year-old Devon Minor was last seen leaving a dining hall on Thursday.

College provost Ken Carson says Minor’s roommates alerted administrators when they hadn’t seen him by Saturday morning. Minor left behind his keys and cell phone.

Carson says it’s not unusual for a college student to be gone for a night, but an absence this long is worrying.

Minor’s aunt and legal guardian traveled across the state from the family’s home in Clifton Heights, Delaware County, to the Beaver County school.

Eleanor Barlow says Minor once left home for 24 hours while in high school and is a self-described loner.
