Former Nickelodeon star Drake Bell was reported missing and is considered “endangered,” police in Florida said Thursday.
Bell, whose real first name is Jared, was last seen just before 9 p.m. on Wednesday. The Daytona Beach Police Department said he was possibly traveling in a 2022 grey BMW and was believed to be in the area of Mainland High School.
“He is considered missing and endangered,” authorities said in a Facebook post.
The department declined to release further details citing an active investigation into his disappearance.
Bell, 36, is best known for his role on the popular Nickelodeon show “Drake & Josh,” which ran from 2004 to 2007.
In 2021, an Ohio judge sentenced him to two years of probation for child endangerment charges after a female victim he met online accused him of “grooming” her since she was 12, sending her graphic photos and engaging in sexual misconduct in two separate incidents.
