1215 callout for missing 83 yo male Alzheimer's. We responded with one trailing and one airscent team, 10 personnel total. The subject, early dementia, had walked away the previous day, after lunch. He had been seen by a friend around 1430 hours about 1.5 miles west of his residence, along S3 212th St. Starting at this LKP, we deployed our trailing and airscent teams. Chris Terpstra, in support of Dog 23, noted a path through the brush off the sidewalk. He followed it and as he pushed further in, he located the subject about 15 yards off the main road. The subject was confused but conversed with Chris. When the deputies started to help the subject walk out, he pulled a gun and was quickly disarmed. After things settled down, he was taken by an aid car to a hospital for observation. (52 hrs)
