Former MTV star Jesse Camp is no longer considered missing, according to the Riverside Police Department in California.
Authorities told ABC News that Camp, who won the "Wanna Be a VJ" contest in 1998 and was reported missing late last week by his sister, has been contacted by a local law enforcement agency and is not in need of any assistance.
His family has been notified, and no other information will be released.
The 38-year-old Camp, whose birth name is Josiah, was reported missing after he lost contact with loved ones and was "possibly transient," police said.
"Family members who he routinely keeps in contact with had not heard from him for about a week. During their inquiries into his possible whereabouts, they learned Jesse was recently in the city of Riverside but is also known to frequent the Inland Empire region," police said in a statement. "There does not appear to be anything suspicious at this time regarding Jesse being missing other than his ceased contact with family and friends."
After winning the MTV contest in the late '90s, Camp tried his hands at music with his album, "Jesse & the 8th Street Kidz." Shortly after, he seemed to have removed himself from the public eye.
