A search was underway for a 71-year-old diabetic who went missing from Pico Rivera.
Benito Anaya was last seen at 7 p.m. Thursday in the 9300 block of Mines Avenue, according to the Sheriff’s Information Bureau.
He has a possible destination of Rosemead Boulevard and Mines Avenue, sheriff’s officials said.
Anaya was described as Hispanic, 5 feet, 4 inches tall, 180 pounds, with black hair and brown eyes, last seen wearing a black baseball hat, dark jacket and dark jeans.
There is concern for Anaya’s well-being because he depends upon medication, sheriff’s officials said.
