@cbsmornings: Search efforts are underway in Kyoto, Japan for 20-year-old American college student James “Weston” Higginbotham, who was last seen on May 29, when it appears he boarded a train alone. Higginbotham, who was on vacation with his family, is an avid hiker, his parents told CBS News, adding that he was likely going to a nearby trail. #japan #missing #auburn #vacation #kyoto

My daughter just returned from Japan on May 24th, from a study abroad trip. It’s typically a very safe place. I can’t imagine how the family feels. Prayers he’s found safe 🙏🙏
