Berkeley, Calif. -- A University of California, Berkeley officer has located Matthew J. Wilson, the 21-year-old Rice University student who was reported missing in December, the City of Berkeley Police Department (BPD) homicide detectives confirmed Wednesday.
Wilson was found in Dwinelle Hall on the UC Campus Wednesday evening and was detained as a possible theft suspect. Wilson then identified himself as the missing Rice student.
Wilson, originally from Haworth, Okla., was a junior seeking a computer science major at Rice University before he went missing on Dec. 15, 2007, from his off-campus Houston apartment.
On June 10, BPD found Wilson’s 2004 silver Dodge Neon in the 1200 block of Allston Way in West Berkeley.
BPD Homicide detectives had been assisting the Rice University Police Department with the Wilson case.
Wilson’s disappearance had garnered national attention and was the subject of several searches, extensive outreach programs by non-profit groups and highlighted on a variety of Web sites devoted to missing person cases.
Several entities, including the Wilson family and Rice University were offering a total of $25,000 in reward money for information regarding Wilson’s disappearance.
A BPD detective who has been working on the case is interviewing Wilson with hopes of learning the what Wilson has been doing over the last eight months.
