An 83-year-old man with Alzheimer’s who went missing has been found in Seattle after a Silver Alert was issued. He was reported missing in Issaquah on Wednesday.

A Silver Alert was issued on Thursday. Merrick was found on Friday. The Silver Alert is similar to the commonly used Amber Alert for missing children, however, it is used for missing elderly people.
