The Kalamazoo Sheriff’s Office is asking anyone who has seen 16-year-old Michael Thornton to contact them. Thornton was released from the hospital Aug. 8 after a suicide attempt; his parents fear that he still may be a danger to himself.

 

Thornton jumped out of a moving car near the intersection of West Main Street and Drake Road on Tuesday about 5:30 p.m. and was last seen running in a southeasterly direction toward Drake Road.

 

Thornton is 5 feet 9 inches tall and weighs about 115 pounds with sandy brown short hair that covers his forehead. He was wearing a teal blue T-shirt with " Girls on the Run " on the front, black pants with “Hollister” on the legs and he was not wearing shoes or socks when he fled.
