A man calling himself Daniel has been found after spending weeks living on the runway of Naples International Airport in Italy. His parents had reported him missing in August. He is currently staying in a reception center in Naples with help arranged by authorities to return him to Sweden. [1]
Daniel suffered from memory loss, unable to recall his full name or past. For over a month, he slept on stacked chairs at the airport and relied on donations of food and warm clothing from travelers and shop staff. [1]
He claimed to be from Sweden but said he could not remember how he arrived in Naples. Italian media reported that he believed he was beaten and robbed in Rome, losing his money and passport in the process. [1]
Airport employees noticed him wandering around in summer clothes despite the weather, providing him with necessary care items and warmer garments. [1]
Authorities were alerted by his fluent Swedish and contacted the Swedish embassy to help identify him. [1]
The search for his identity has succeeded, and his parents have been located in Sweden. His family expressed relief upon learning he was safe. [1]
Temporary shelter and guidance are being provided in Naples while working with the Swedish consulate and embassy to arrange his repatriation. The municipal authorities of Naples are collaborating with Swedish diplomatic missions to facilitate his return home. [1]
