Within the hour he was discovered unharmed in the area of Old Sonora Columbia Rd. and Hwy 49 about a mile-and-a-half from where he had last been seen.
According to Lt. Mark Stinson Joshua had become upset while playing a game at a friend´s home. He left that location and, as he later told police, was headed to a cousin´s home. Police learned that Joshua does not have a cousin.
Joshua was transported back to his home where he was reunited with his mother Laura Smith.
