Purdue University student reported missing in El Paso is now believed to be voluntarily staying in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico, El Paso police said.
Authorities in El Paso said they tracked 33-year old Eric Michael Campbell to a Ciudad Juarez hotel where a desk clerk identified him from a photograph and reported that he seemed to be in good health when he checked in several days ago.
Campbell, a student at Purdue in West Lafayette was reported missing after he didn't return to Indiana after attending a wedding in Ciudad Juarez last month. Investigators said he was scheduled to fly back to Indiana from El Paso on Jan. 15 but only his luggage made the flight.
Police said Campbell checked out of the Mexican hotel Thursday before they arrived.
Though Campbell is thought to be staying in Mexico voluntarily, El Paso police said his missing person case would remain open until they can speak with him.
