Actor Safe and Sound After Mysterious Disappearance
Drake Bell, the actor and musician famous for his role in the popular Nickelodeon series “Drake & Josh,” has been located after being reported missing in Florida. The Daytona Beach Police Department had earlier issued an alert on Facebook declaring Bell as “missing and endangered.”
Bell took to Twitter to address his disappearance, humorously mentioning on April 13, “You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this?” However, he did not provide any additional information regarding the incident.
The 36-year-old actor was last spotted around 9 p.m. on April 12 near Mainland High School, possibly driving a 2022 grey BMW. The Daytona Beach Police Department posted Bell’s photo on Facebook along with a request for information from the public.

Notably, this isn’t the first time Bell has grabbed headlines for controversial reasons. In July 2021, he was arrested and charged with attempted child endangerment, leading to a guilty plea and a two-year probation sentence.
As news of his disappearance circulated, fans and followers expressed worry and support on social media. However, in light of Bell’s past actions, reactions were mixed, with some showing sympathy and others displaying criticism.
Though the circumstances surrounding his disappearance are still unclear, the most important news is that Bell has been located and is safe. Time will tell how fans and critics alike will continue to track his professional and personal endeavors, ideally steering clear of any further episodes of drama or controversy.
