Assuming you are in a controller

$something = Something::findFirst($id);
if (!$something) {
    return $this->response->redirect('/404');
}

or you can forward to a different action using the dispatcher

$this->dispatcher->forward(
    [
        'controller' => 'utils',
        'action'     => 'notfound',
    ]
);

The url will change to `/404` that is not what i want. – XieWilliam Sep 04 '17 at 01:42
Try the `forward` method on the dispatcher. I changed my comment to show you how – Nikolaos Dimopoulos Sep 05 '17 at 12:30

You want to use forward() method from Dispatcher class.

if ($somethingFailed) {
    return $this->dispatcher->forward(['controller' => 'index', 'action' => 'error404']);
}  

// Controller method
function error404Action()
{   
    $this->response->setStatusCode(404, "Not Found"); 
    $this->view->pick('_layouts/error-404');
    $this->response->send();
}
