City of Miami Police said officers were called to the Coconut Grove Metrorail Station after reports of a man acting “disorderly” with a security guard.
Sanchez was accused by the security guard of using profanity and screaming.
Officers arrested him after he allegedly refused to calm down and leave the area.
According to FIU Police, Sanchez’s last phone call with relatives on Tuesday left them concerned that something was wrong.
Before he was found, police said Sanchez had not attended class and that his family had not received any calls, texts or emails from him.
He is being held on $1,000 bond.
