Missing College Student Found in NYC Hospital, Where He'd Been Unknown Patient for Weeks

A Boston University student who had been missing for nearly three weeks in New York City has been identified as an unknown patient at a local hospital, his family says. 

Zachery Camhi, 25, was found in good condition at Bellevue Hospital, where he apparently had been since Sept. 20, a day after he was reported missing. Hospital workers couldn't identify him until someone saw his photo on a flyer and called police. 

Camhi has bipolar disorder and had not been taking his medication, his worried brother told NBC 4 New York last week. Zac had similar episodes in Boston but has never been missing more than a few hours, his brother Sam said.

Sam Camhi said his brother remains hospitalized and is in good condition.
