RCMP report Edmond Crooks has been found and is safe and sound.

ORIGINAL 2:08 p.m.

Kelowna RCMP says family and friends are concerned about the well-being of a 73-year old man, who hasn’t been seen since Saturday evening.

Edmond Crooks left his home in the 1000 block of Brookside Ave. on foot around 7:00 p.m. yesterday. His loved ones say it’s out of character for him to be out of contact for so long.

Crooks is 5 ft. 10 inches, 170 lbs., with short black hair and brown eyes. He was wearing tan shorts, a dark green t-shirt and black running shoes.

He may appear disoriented and may be in need of medical assistance.

Anyone with information on the whereabouts of Edmond Crooks is urged to contact their local police or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 (TIPS).
