"Missing" Student Found in NYC Occupy Protest

     SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) - A University of South Dakota freshman
whose family reported him missing after they couldn't reach him
says he didn't think about telling anyone he was planning to take a
bus from Omaha to New York so he could take part in part in the
Occupy Wall Street protests.
     Eighteen-year-old Aaron Schmidt says he wanted to see the New
York camp up close when he left Vermillion more than two weeks ago.
But when family members couldn't reach him after a few days, they
reported him missing.
     Family members from Wisconsin flew to New York to search for him
after seeing the bus ticket purchase on his credit card bill. They
were able to locate him the same day and Schmidt returned to
Wisconsin with them.
