Pro wrestling star Shotzi Blackheart said Wednesday her brother, Dean, was found after she and her family worried about his safety in California.
Shotzi, whose real name is Ashley Alfaro, wrote on social media that her brother was missing after he was involved in a car crash in the San Francisco area. She said at the time that he was receiving dialysis treatments and may have been “confused or disoriented.”
“My brother has been found and is being taken to the hospital,” she wrote on X.
“We are incredibly grateful to everyone who shared the post, reached out, and helped spread the word. The support and kindness from so many people truly means the world to our family. Thank you all so much.”
