Renton Man Found Safe By Search Teams
Police located a man who went missing after he went for a walk Saturday night.
RENTON, WA — The Renton Police Department safely located a 30-year-old man who was reported missing after going for a walk Saturday night.
Police were concerned for his welfare, because his failure to return from a walk was unusual, and he was thought to be potentially at-risk. King County Search and Rescue teams checked several trail heads in the area before locating him among some thick brush Sunday afternoon.
