The Fremont Police Department found a missing person yesterday, 36-year-old Kevin James Farr, who had last been seen near Washington Hospital in Fremont. The brief statement on the department's social media simply read: "Kevin Farr has been located. Thank you." No further details about his condition or the circumstances of his discovery have been made available as of yet, unfortunately.

Before he was found, the Fremont Police expressed urgent concern for Farr, described as a Caucasian male, 5'11", weighing 185 lbs, with brown hair and blue eyes. The call for public assistance in locating him, given his at-risk status, circulated widely after his disappearance on Sunday. When last seen, wearing a green jacket and jeans, Farr had vanished at 4:20 a.m. near the local hospital, spurring a community effort to aid in the police search.

The original appeal for public help was shared on Hoodline, which listed the specific characteristics of Farr and provided contact instructions for anyone with information to get in touch with the Fremont Police at (510) 790-6800, option 3, or to dial 911 in an emergency.
