ANOKA, Minn. (FOX 9) - A popular Anoka bartender who had been missing for about a week has been found safe.
The Anoka Police Department said on Friday 40-year-old Brandon Stott has been located and is safe.
Stott goes missing
The backstory:
Stott was reported missing last week after he didn’t show up for work on April 10, which was unusual. He was last seen on April 8 walking home after working at 201 Tavern Beer Garden & Grill. The community grew concerned after authorities conducted a search of the Rum and Mississippi Rivers, which turned up nothing.
Co-workers also organized a search in the Anoka area last Sunday, with no success.

"Thank you to everyone who assisted in locating him and for sharing the information," authorities said in a statement.
