The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department is urgently calling on the community to come forward with any information regarding the whereabouts of missing 75-year-old Geneva Alfreda Mott, whose last known contact was in Norwalk in the early hours of the morning. The Missing Persons Unit relayed that Mott, a white female with dementia, was last seen at 6:10 a.m. on May 21 on the 11500 block of Imperial Highway, as announced by the sheriff's department.

Standing at 5 feet 6 inches and weighing 164 pounds, Geneva Mott is distinctive with her green eyes and brown hair; she was last noted to be wearing a sweater, her appearance may offer key identifiers for the public in aiding her location, despite the unfortunately scant details available regarding her disappearance—family members have expressed deep concern for her well-being given her medical condition, which adds an enhanced sense of urgency to their appeal.

Authorities at the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department are intensifying their efforts and urge those who might have seen Mott or have any relevant information to contact the Missing Persons Unit directly at (323) 890-5500. In a bid to facilitate anonymous tips, the Sheriff's Department also suggests that information can be provided discreetly through "Crime Stoppers" by calling (800) 222-TIPS (8477), or utilizing the “P3 Tips” mobile app and website services available.
