Elderly Kansas man with dementia is missing

By KMAN Staff on February 8, 2012 State News

KINGMAN, Kan. (AP) The Kansas Bureau of Investigation has issued a Silver Alert for an 89-year-old Kingman man who hasn’t been seen since driving away from his home.

Wallace “Gene” Fairchild left his home about noon Tuesday in Kingman in his 2005 red Ford Ranger. The license tag is WCJ-100. His family says he suffers from dementia and has vision problems that make it difficult for him to drive at night.

Another resident saw Fairchild driving west on U.S. 54 in Kingman. Family members say he was wearing overalls.

Anyone with information is asked to call Kingman police at 620-532-3138.
