If you're an Angeleno in the know (or happened to catch last night's local L.A. news) you may have heard that on Wednesday, a 15-year-old Autistic teen, Cameron Smith, had run away from Burbank's Bob Hope Airport. Strange, right? And you may have learned that he was discovered ordering a drink in West Hollywood's famous gay bar, The Abbey. Even weirder. But what hasn't been reported is that he may have been running away because he was being sent away because he's gay. Details after the jump.

We hadn't had our morning coffee yet…which was probably a good thing since our eyes were not yet fully open. But thanks to Buzzfeed, they opened real wide after getting a mere glimpse of their overshare. Check it out (if you dare) after the jump.
