Police seek missing man with dementia
The Westfield Police Department is looking for a missing man who suffers from dementia.
James Flynn, 75, was reported missing by his family late Wednesday night from his home on the 400-block of West Broad Street in Westfield.
Flynn's daughter last spoke with him at 5:30 p.m. Wednesday and planned on meeting him at his home. When she arrived, he was gone.
Flynn is approximately 5 feet 7 inches tall and 150 pounds, with brown eyes, gray hair and beard. Since he suffers from dementia, he may not know how to get back home. He is known to drive a gray 2010 Hyundai with license plate T27CBU. He may be heading to Pennsylvania.
Anyone with any information is urged to call the Westfield police at 908-789-4000.
