A University of Chicago student reported missing in June has been safely reunited with family, three months after they had offered a $10,000 reward to find him, school officials announced Wednesday.
Diwen Fan, 20, was last seen leaving his university dorm room on May 5, the family’s lawyer, Yilun Hu, shared in June.
In an email to the school community on Wednesday, Dean of Students John Ellison announced Fan has been reunited with his family.
“He and his family visited campus today to show their gratitude to the entire university community,” Ellison wrote. “The university will continue to support Diwen and his family moving forward.”
Officials have not provided any details on Fan’s disappearance.
The family’s lawyer said there was an indication Fan had an “unsatisfactory academic record,” and his parents released a statement telling the college sophomore not to be frustrated by things out of his control.
The family offered a $10,000 reward for anyone with information leading to Fan.
