(KAIR)--A missing, elderly Jefferson County man has been found safe in Atchison.
That's according to a release from Atchison County Sheriff Jack Laurie, who says the 73-year-old man was found after a resident of 5759 Sheridan Road, around 10:45 Saturday night, reported that a red Ford Ranger was stuck in the grass on the property.
Deputies arrived on the scene, and identified the driver of the stuck truck as the 73-year-old Winchester resident who had been the focus of an attempt to locate, and check welfare, issued by the Jefferson County Sheriff's Office.
According to Laurie, Atchison County EMS transported the man from the Sheridan Road location to Amberwell Atchison for evaluation.
The Jefferson County Sheriff's Office was notified that the man was located.
