MINNEAPOLIS — Minneapolis police say an elderly man reported as missing has been found safe.
Before he was located Tuesday morning, police had asked city residents to be on the lookout for 84-year-old Amatoliy Afanasyev, who was last seen around 4 p.m. on the 200 block of Oak Grove Street. There was great concern for his welfare, as Afanasyev doesn't speak English and has memory issues.
On Tuesday Minneapolis police spokesman John Elder shared the news that Afanasyev was located, and is safe and well. Elder thanked everyone who spread word of the elderly man's disappearance.
