Vancouver Police Department investigators are requesting assistance with locating Arthur Applegate, a seventy year old male. Arthur was last seen leaving his residence on foot at 6100 block of Kansas Street in Vancouver, Washington. Arthur mentioned to a family member that he was going to "roam around in Portland."
Arthur is seventy years old. He is a White male, hazel eyes, gray hair (balding), approximately 5'6" tall, and weighing approximately 114 lbs. Arthur was last seen wearing a gray jacket, blue jeans, and white shoes. Arthur also had a small to medium size tan backpack on his person.
Arthur does not have a vehicle and the most recent number to his cell phone is unknown at this time. Arthur has medical conditions that affect his memory and mental health.
Arthur's physical welfare may be compromised due to his absence as he at times gets confused and disoriented when on his own.
Anyone with information on his whereabouts is asked to call "911" as soon as possible.

UPDATE: Mr. Arthur Applegate has been located in Shasta Lake, California. He appears to be okay both physically and mentally at the moment. Family has been updated. We thank all citizens and news agencies that assisted with the search.
