Missing Nokesville teen found in New Jersey

Update

We have more information about Thomas James “T.J” Sadler’s disappearance.

Sadler was found yesterday morning in North Cape May, New Jersey.

According to a police report from the Lower Township Police Department in Erma, New Jersey, officers went to a residence on Elliot Road in North Cape May at 8:13 a.m.

The call was prompted by a detective from Prince William police, who stated that Sadler was online and the IP address he was using, was traced back to the residence.

At the residence, officers located Sadler and he was transported back to the police station, according to the police report. Sadler was found with a female acquaintance. Potomac Local is following up to determine the age and identity of the female involved.

A detective from Prince William police was sent to retrieve Sadler from New Jersey.

The family’s blue Ford pickup truck that was missing at the time of Sadler’s disappearance was recovered at the Cracker Barrel on Sudley Road in Manassas, according to Prince William police spokesman Jonathan Perok. As of now, it is unclear as to how he was transported to New Jersey.

Lynn Sadler – Sadler’s mother – stated that she was still upset about the incident, but that she was happy and relieved that her son had been found safely.
