PENN TOWNSHIP, Mich. — A Cass County Alzheimer’s patient was found safe thanks to a K9's tracking efforts.
The 73-year-old woman went missing out of Penn Township Thursday evening, according to the Cass County Sheriff’s Office. They say family informed them that she had left to take a walk when they last heard from her and had been unsuccessful after an hour-long search.
Deputies say Neera, one of their K9 units, found the woman a ways behind the home she disappeared from along the edge of a field.
The woman has since been evaluated for heat exhaustion, authorities tell us.
