McDowell County sheriff’s deputies desperately need the public’s help locating a missing man.
                Johnny Lee Barefoot, 64, walked away from the Houston House, an assisted living facility on U.S. 64 in Union Mills, at approximately 11:10 a.m. on Monday, Oct. 22 and hasn’t been seen since.
                He is described as a white male who stands 6 feet, 2 inches tall and weighs about 180 pounds. He was last seen wearing tan pants, a tan jacket and a fedora (Indiana Jones-style hat) and was carrying a green knapsack.
                He has dementia, so there’s a possibility he won’t know his identity, location or other pertinent information.
                Anyone with information concerning Barefoot’s whereabouts is asked to call the McDowell County Sheriff’s Office at 652-2235 or the McDowell County 911 communications center at 652-4000.
