Police are looking for a 13-year-old boy who ran away from a wayward youth program in the remote desert area of western Beaver County.
Roberto Madrigal, who is from California, has been in The Redcliff Ascent wilderness therapy program for about a month. A Beaver County Sheriff’s Office spokesman said early Thursday that he doesn’t know when Madrigal escaped, from where or how.
While Madirgal is believed to have water, “dehydration is a concern because of the weather conditions,” according to the sheriff’s office.
The sheriff’s office encouraged campers staying in the West Desert near Pine Valley, about 35 miles north of St.
