Police in Inglewood are searching for a man who they say walked away from a hospital last week and has not been seen or heard from since.
Anthony Joel Rogers was originally admitted to Centinela Medical Hospital, located at 555 East Hardy Street in Inglewood, on May 18. He was hospitalized for “a mental health episode,” the Inglewood Police Department said in a missing person bulletin issued to media outlets.
Two days later, Rogers, 72, walked away from the hospital at approximately 2:30 p.m. and disappeared.
“According to hospital staff, Anthony suffers from altered mental status and diabetes, and he takes medication as needed,” the Inglewood Police Department said.
IPD stated that Rogers, who is considered at-risk, left an assisted living facility in Mar Vista on May 9 and may be homeless.
He was last seen wearing a black and white jacket with draw strings, blue jeans, yellow socks and dark-colored shoes.
Anyone who has information on Anthony Joel Rogers’ whereabouts should contact the Inglewood Police Department: 310-412-8771.
