An 84-year-old Hispanic male, George Payan, is an at-risk missing person. Last seen on the 4900 block of 6th Street in Los Angeles at 4:00 p.m. last week, September 29, as reported by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department (LASD).
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department released details about George's physical description, hoping the public can assist in locating him. According to the LASD, George is 5'06" tall, weighs 160 lbs., and has gray/black hair, brown eyes, and an arched back. He was last seen wearing a blue shirt, blue jeans, and black shoes. He also suffers from dementia, amplifying concern for his welfare.
As those who have cared for dementia patients know, the disease poses to critically impact George's safety due to the confusion and disorientation it often causes.
