 © 2018 KREM-TV ||||| The search is on to find Kristian Perez, a teen who vanished without a trace. The investigation began Saturday night when the 17-year-old seemingly disappeared from his high school prom. 
 
 It’s been about 48 hours since Kristian Perez vanished from Orofino. Right now Orofino police have secured a search warrant for Perez’s cellphone, going through calls and text messages, in hopes of figuring out if any information can help find him. 
 
 Police say the last time anyone saw him was Saturday night, when he signed out of the prom at 9:32p.m. 
 
 Here’s a look at where Perez was last seen, The National Guard Armory off of Highway-12 where Orofino’s prom was held. 
 
 According to Orofino police, Perez was reported missing by his mother after he didn’t return home. 
 
 Police brought in a canine tracking team, which indicated Kristian may have walked west from the National Guard Armory. But the track was lost after a short distance, near an entrance into a nearby parking lot along the highway. It is believed Kristian may have then entered a vehicle. 
 
 Shannon Moudy, news reporter spoke with the school district’s superintendent Robert Vian, who said the school has a crisis prevention program for any students or staff affected. 
 
 "The administration met with the staff this morning to give the staff as much information as we have about the missing student, let the teachers know that if any students were struggling or having particular concerns they should be sent to the counselors’ office,” said Vian. “So we sort of have protocols in place to help students and staff deal with situations, but this one is fairly unique." 
 
 If you have any information on where Kristian Perez may be, let authorities know right away. ||||| Now to the latest on the investigation of what was a missing team. KLEW News Reporter Shannon Moudy spoke with the Orofino Police Chief about why…As relieved as the community is to find Kristian Perez safe, the nature of his disappearance is frustrating. A tip led police to find Kristian Perez close to 1:00AM Tuesday morning, this ends days of searching by several area agencies but now he’s charged as a runaway. 
 
 Just two miles from where he disappeared, police found 17-year-old Kristian Perez around 12:44 Tuesday morning. 
 
 "There was particular concern that there could've been foul play involved so that did increase the level of urgency for us,” said Orofino Police Chief Jeff Wilson. 
 
 Kristian left Orofino’s prom at the National Guard Armory around 9:30 Saturday night. He left behind a tuxedo jacket, broken phone, and one shoe, troubling clues for the Orofino Police Department. 
 
 A canine tracking team followed the trail from the armory a short distance west to a nearby parking lot, where the trail was lost. 
 
 "We were fortunate enough to get a tip late last night that led to a house on Indio Avenue here in Orofino where Kristian was found safe,” said Chief Wilson. 
 
 After more than 48-hours of fear and worry, emotions now turning to relief mixed with frustration. Police discovered Perez had willfully been hiding at the home of a 26-year-old Orofino man. 
 
 "Ultimately we were disappointed in the fact that he elected to in essence run away and not contact family members, knowing people were looking for him, but at the same time it was a relief to find him,” said Chief Wilson. 
 
 In Idaho, it’s a status offense for children under 18 to run away. 
 
 "He was taken into custody on a runaway charge and then he is released to a parent, so he left with his mother late last night,” said Chief Wilson. 
 
 Clearwater County’s Deputy Prosecutor Laurie Gilmore said that Perez faces possible probation for the charge. 
 
 "A lot of man-hours put into the last 48-hours of trying to locate him,” said Chief Wilson. 
 
 It’s a bittersweet ending to an investigation that involved numerous agencies, as far away as Horseshoe Bend near Boise. 
 
 Chief Wilson hopes others will learn a lesson from this. 
 
 "The real message here or learning experience is hopefully that other teenagers that are in this situation make a better choice that don't lead to some of this concern and some of this chaos that we've experienced the last 48 hours,” said Chief Wilson. 
 
 Monday, the school district brought in counseling for students and staff who were distraught over Perez’s initial disappearance. Again police determined he wasn’t missing but had run away from home.
– A 17-year-old high school student in Idaho signed out of his senior prom at exactly 9:32pm Friday, but he never returned home—a lone shoe, his tux jacket, and a busted cellphone were found near the car he came in, KREM reports. Kristian Perez's family says no one's heard from him since he left the event Friday night, and local police say in a statement in the Idaho County Free Press that they've obtained a search warrant for his phone and are now scouring his call and text logs for possible clues. Cops say Kristian's mom reported him missing when he didn't come home after the prom, which was held at the National Guard Armory in Orofino. Per KLEW, a police dog-sniffing team tried to follow Kristian's scent, which apparently led west from the armory, but the scent vanished right at the entrance to a parking lot along the same highway the armory is located on. Investigators speculate Kristian may have gotten into a vehicle at that location. Cops say in the statement that a possible sighting of Kristian in Lewiston, about an hour away, came up empty after they reviewed a surveillance tape and concluded the person seen in the video wasn't the missing teen.
