Franklin Colon was last seen around 4:30 p.m. Friday at his home in the 2800 block of Lyndscape Street, deputies said. He’s 5 feet, 6 inches tall, balding with gray hair, weighs around 170 pounds and is known also to have faded tattoos on both shoulders, according to law enforcement.

The concern for Franklin’s well-being relates to how he suffers from dementia, deputies said.
