Seventy-eight-year-old Thai Lang Ly was last seen in the area of Main Street and East Broadway at about 3:00 this afternoon. He was out with his wife when he wandered off.

Mr. Ly is described as Asian, 5’6” tall with grey hair and brown eyes. He is not very mobile, walks with a cane, and was wearing a black and white jacket and a beige hat.

The missing man speaks Vietnamese and Cantonese and can be identified by a medical bracelet he wears.
