OREM, Utah, April 26, 2018 (Gephardt Daily) — The Orem Police Department is requesting the public’s help in locating a missing 75-year-old man.
Robert Flygare was last seen Wednesday morning in the area of 600 S. 700 West, and may be disoriented or have had a medical issue, the Orem Police Department said in a news release.
Flygare is Caucasian, and has white hair and blue eyes. He was last seen wearing a green button-up shirt and jeans.
Anyone who sees Flygare is asked to call dispatch at 801-229-7070.
We are friends and neighbors of Robert, we have been searching but wish we knew more information about the circumstances. The Orem Police Dept. states that they need help finding him, but there is nothing said about why and how he left the house; whether he traveled by foot or by car; whether he had his wallet or money/credit cards with him; whether he had his cell phone with him and if so, have they tried to ping the phone? We know he would go on regular walks for miles and traveled different routes. We are assuming he went for a walk and didn’t come back, so we have been walking miles and miles on different, more remote paths in an effort to find him. But again, we wish we had more information on the circumstances to help us narrow things down! We are worried.
