An Australian teenager reported missing two months ago has been found alive in dense bushland not far from his home, local police say.
Matthew Allen, 18, was last seen at his family home near Westleigh, a suburb about 30 kilometers (20 miles) away from Sydney, on November 27.
On Saturday, two hikers told police that they had spotted a "disorientated man" in bushland not far from Westleigh.
When rescuers reached Allen, he was in a bad way suffering from exhaustion and dehydration.
Local media said he was emaciated, covered in leeches and mosquito bites and his feet and lower legs were suffering from gangrene.
I feel so sorry for this boy, he must have suffered a lot.
