DEKALB COUNTY, Ga. - A family desperate to find their father who went missing without a trace Saturday morning is rejoicing after he was found later in the evening.
The family told FOX 5 they were afraid the DeKalb County 77-year-old, who was diagnosed with Alzheimer's and Dementia, was disoriented.
Jim "Jimmy" Flowers, left his home in Decatur on foot at around 5:45 a.m. He was later spotted on Ring doorbell footage near Pinetree Drive and Scott Boulevard in Decatur Saturday evening. He was wearing a golden yellow short sleeve top with a collar, a black wool Kangol hat and possibly a pair of black gloves. At the time, it was between 35- and 40-degrees.
