The Tukwila Police Department is asking for the public’s assistance in locating 64-year-old Michael Gilman, who was last seen near his assisted living facility in the 4000 block of S 148th Street (map below).

Police said that Gilman – who suffers from dementia – may be confused and disoriented.

Although Gilman is not restricted from leaving the facility, it is unusual for him to do so alone.

Authorities believe he may have boarded a nearby Metro bus, as he has previously visited the mall area with caregivers.

Gilman was last seen wearing a faded denim jacket and a navy blue shirt with red circles on it.

Tukwila Police urge anyone who sees Michael Gilman or has information about his whereabouts to call 9-1-1 and reference Case #240004590.
