Atlanta teen missing after argument

Atlanta police continue their search this afternoon for a 16-year-old who has been missing since Saturday. He was last seen leaving his home in Atlanta.

ATLANTA - A 16-year-old Atlanta boy who went missing after an argument with his family on Saturday morning has been found safe.

Jacob Parker walked away from his home in northwest Atlanta. He was spotted Sunday at the Midtown MARTA station.

Members of Atlanta Westside Presbyterian Church went all over the city of Atlanta Saturday looking for Parker.

Church holds vigil for missing teen

Atlanta Westside Presbyterian Church held a somber vigil for 16-year-old Jacob Parker who left his home inside the Park on Vinings apartment complex Saturday night. He hasn't been seen since.

"Jacob, we love you. We love you we want you home," his father, Joe Parker, told FOX 5 on Monday.

"We pray that he's warm. He left home in a T-shirt so if he's outside he needs clothing he needs food he needs shelter," said Walter Henegar, senior pastor at Atlanta Westside Presbyterian Church.

Further details about his disappearance were not immediately available.
