In a recent turn of events, the Minneapolis Police Department took to social media to inform the public that Mary Andrews, a 69-year-old woman with Alzheimer’s who had been reported missing, has been found and is safe. The notice came as a relief after a citywide effort to locate the missing woman.
Previously, the Minneapolis Police Department had issued an urgent appeal to the public on February 20th, seeking assistance in finding Mary Andrews. Described as a 5’2″ tall black woman, weighing 135 lbs., with bleached white hair, she was last seen on February 19th at around 8:30 p.m. near 1818 Lowry.
