*SUBJECT IDENTIFIED THROUGH FINGERPRINTS*
DATE/TIME: October 7, 2017
INCIDENT: Found Adult
LOCATION: Schlitz Road x Phelan Road / St. Mary Medical Center
SUMMARY:
On August 30, 2017, at 4:03pm, Sheriff’s Dispatch received a call of a found adult near the intersection of Schlitz Road and Phelan Road in the unincorporated area of Phelan. The caller reported a disoriented male in a wheelchair. When asked if he needed help, the male only nodded and pointed. When the male was contacted by deputies, he was unable to speak or write. Because of this, deputies were unable to determine his identity or residence. Deputies utilized multiple databases, fingerprint technology and reviewed missing persons reports to identify the man. All searches resulted in negative results. Neighborhood checks also met with negative results.
Due to the male’s age and medical conditions he was transported to St. Mary Medical Center. Over the last week, medical staff and deputies have repeatedly attempted to learn the subject’s name. He is alert and responds with nonverbal cues, but still cannot convey his identity, residence or responsible party information. Additional attempts to verify his fingerprints have been unsuccessful.
The unidentified male is described as a Hispanic male adult, 60-70 years old, salt and pepper hair, approximately 5’05” tall and 130 pounds. He was found wearing a green sweater, gray sweatpants and socks.
