British Teenager Alex Batty Returns Home After 6-Year Disappearance in France

Alex Batty, the teenager who went missing six years ago while on holiday with his mother and grandfather, has returned to the UK after being found in France. His French hosts claim that he wanted to go back to school and live a "normal life." During his time in France, he stayed with a couple who provided him with a room, internet access, and the freedom to come and go as he pleased. They encouraged him to learn French and helped him find a school. The whereabouts of his mother are unknown, and the police are still investigating the circumstances of his disappearance.
