Kent police are asking for the public’s help in finding a missing 81-year-old man who suffers from dementia and is “extremely hard of hearing.”

Larry Martinez has been missing from downtown Kent since Wednesday, June 8.

He was last seen at the Pied Piper Pub on 311 West Meeker Street. He left the premises on his own accord and has not been heard from since, according to police.

Martinez does not have access to a vehicle and does not carry a cell phone with him. He may present with speech issues and is at risk for falling, according to his family.

He has a limp and was last seen wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, a black sweater, gray slacks and black shoes. He has gray hair and no facial hair.

Anyone who sees him is asked to call 911.
