This is a developing story. Names, physical descriptions, and vehicle information have not yet been confirmed. Check back for updates as authorities release more details.
What Is a Silver Alert?
California's Silver Alert works like an Amber Alert but for missing adults. It's typically triggered when a senior with dementia or another cognitive condition goes missing. CHP coordinates with local agencies to push the alert across highways, media, and emergency systems throughout the affected region.
What Angelenos Should Do
If you're in Culver City or South Los Angeles, keep an eye out for any disoriented or confused elderly men who may need help. If you spot someone matching a Silver Alert description, don't approach in a way that could cause distress. Call 911 immediately and stay with the person if it's safe.
