The Pasco County Sheriff's Office says a 17-year-old who escaped from the Land O' Lakes juvenile detention facility has been found.

Deputies were looking for Jacob Bedson after the teen managed to jump a fence and run from the facility. 

He was last seen Monday just after 5 p.m. at the facility on SR 52, about a mile west of Interstate 75. 

Bedson is being returned to the custody of the Department of Juvenile Justice, which operates the Juvenile Detention Center.
