Locus was reported missing on Thursday around 6 p.m. from her Wakefield home
Officials say Ferdinand had last been seen Thursday morning in Manhattan at a shelter where he lives.
They say the teenager's mother found evidence that her daughter had a sexual interaction with Ferdinand and confronted her about it. Locus then took off.
