Zhuang reportedly fled his host home on December 28, influenced by cybercriminals who convinced him that his family in China was under threat.

His family informed the police that they had paid an $80,000 ransom after Zhuang sent them a photo indicating that he was being held against his will.

On Sunday, investigators announced that they located Zhuang alone, “very cold and scared,” in a snowy canyon northeast of the city, USA Today reported.
