This story includes descriptions of child sexual assault that may be distressing to some readers.
Drake Bell is best known for his role on the hit Nickelodeon series, Drake & Josh, which ran for four seasons between 2004 and 2007.
The actor starred alongside Josh Peck, as they played teenage step-siblings who were complete opposites.
In recent years, the now-36-year-old has moved away from acting to focus on his singing career. He has also been involved in a series of controversies.
On Thursday morning US time, the Daytona Beach Police Department announced they were looking for the actor.
"He should be travelling in a 2022 grey BMW and his last known location is potentially the area of Mainland High School just before 9pm," the Facebook post read.
"He is considered missing and endangered."
The post has since been updated, noting he had been found.
"At this time, we can confirm law enforcement officials are in contact and Mr Bell is safe."
Bell claimed on Twitter that the whole incident was a miscommunication, and he had just left his phone in his car overnight.
You leave your phone in the car and don’t answer for the night and this? 😂
