A 61-year-old man who went missing for three days last week was reunited with his family thanks to search efforts from a large coalition from multiple counties and state-level authorities.
According to the Riverside County Sheriff’s Office, the unnamed man was reported missing at 1 a.m. on Wednesday. He had “gone missing under unknown circumstances” in the 38000 block of Overton Road, located east of Sage, a community of just over 3,300 people that lies south of Hemet.
“A search operation was immediately launched and continued for three days,” RCSO said in a press release. “On Saturday, the missing man was found alive and in stable condition in the Sage area.”
He was taken to a local hospital and evaluated before being reunited with his family.
Riverside County authorities were aided by multiple other local agencies in the search for the man, including officials from Orange, San Diego and San Bernardino counties as well as officials from the state level.
Photos included in RCSO’s press release show the large search team.
