The Miami-Dade community breathed a collective sigh of relief as 83-year-old Jose Ducasse, previously reported missing, was found safe yesterday afternoon. Ducasse, an elderly resident of the Allapattah area in Miami had last been seen last Thursday, prompting a call for public assistance in the search, reports Local10. His absence raised concerns, given his age and the potential risks involved.

Miami Police launched a thorough search, distributing a description of Ducasse – standing at 5 feet, 6 inches, weighing around 130 pounds, with brown eyes, and bald – to enlist the public's aid. In a statement obtained by WSVN, authorities did not specify where in Allapattah Ducasse was last seen, which might have, widened the search area unnecessarily.

The details surrounding Ducasse's discovery have not been made public, but officials confirmed that he is in good health.
