Police Need Help Finding Missing Woman, 65, Suffering From Diabetes, Dementia

LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — Police are asking for the public's help finding a 65-year-old woman suffering from diabetes, depression and dementia.

Lollet Williams was last seen by a family member about 12:30 p.m. Wednesday, as she was getting off a Metro bus at the intersection of Western Avenue and Martin Luther King Jr. Boulevard, according to Los Angeles police.

Williams apparently told family members that she wanted to return to her native Belize by way of a Greyhound bus.

Williams is a Latina with brown eyes and gray hair that's dyed black. She stands 5-foot-3 and weighs around 160 pounds.

She uses a prosthetic left foot and relies on a wheelchair for mobility, according to police.

The woman was last seen wearing a blue and purple blouse over a pink shirt.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts was asked to call the LAPD's Missing Persons Unit at (213) 996-1800 or the 24-hour tipline at (877) LAPD-24-7 or 911. All tips can be made anonymously.
