Kellie Petterson, 18, went missing from his home in Taita on Sunday afternoon.

He was found safe at 7.20am today on the railway tracks in Petone, Detective Sergeant Scott Cooper said.

He was a bit confused and disorientated, but seemed to be all right.

Mr Petterson was intellectually disabled and suffered from depression.

He lives with his grandparents, who had been concerned for his safety.
