Last week, a 63-year-old Lake Elsinore man who suffers from Alzheimer's disease was reported missing and police say they are still looking for him.
Craig Staneart, who is prone to extreme confusion, wandered away from his home in the 29000 block of Maes Avenue around 5:20 p.m. Feb. 7, according to Sgt. Marc Cloutier of the Riverside County Sheriff’s Department.
Staneart is described as a white male adult, approximately 6’1” tall, weighing about 185 lbs. He was last seen wearing a blue denim jacket, red shirt and blue jeans.
Family members reported Staneart missing the morning of Feb. 8.
“The Lake Elsinore Police Department searched the area with the assistance of the department helicopter, and trained search dogs. As of this writing Mr. Steneart's whereabouts are unknown,” Cloutier said.
A missing person flier is being distributed to local law enforcement agencies, the sergeant confirmed.
This investigation is ongoing and anyone with additional information is encouraged to call the Lake Elsinore Police Department at (951) 245-3300 or (951) 776-1099 after regular business hours.
