>Johnathan sent a text message in which he talked about going “on an adventure.”The teen’s father now fears that adventure may have been inspired by the 2007 film “Into the Wild” about a young hiker seeking isolation in the Alaskan wilderness.
>“We’re talking about a kid who was obsessed with the movie,” David said. “My concern is he is up there with very limited resources, not a lot of experience.”
>On Wednesday, police found Johnathan’s car abandoned in rural Oregon.>Inside they found his ID, wallet, $200 in cash and a book on outdoor survival tactics.“Just as in that movie…he left everything behind and took off, and we just don’t know what he left with,” David said.
