Something is wrong with the quote.  "John want to come here." is incorrect.  Is it
 
Mary said "John wants to come here."  ?
 
If so, Pedro�s answer is correct.

It could also be "Mary said that John wanted to come here."
 
It depends on where the location is, relative to the person who is reporting it.
