Edmonton police asked for the public’s help early Monday morning locating a missing senior with dementia. Egon Liersch, sometimes called “Curious George,” was last seen around 10:30 p.m. on Sunday near his home at 59 Street and 92 Avenue. “Egon has dementia and other medical concerns for which he requires regular medication. As a result, police and family are concerned for his wellbeing,” Edmonton Police Service (EPS) said in a missing person’s notice issued less than five hours later. Anyone with information about Liersch’s location is asked to call EPS at 780-423-4567 or #377 from a mobile phone. He is about 5′9″ tall and slim, has grey hair, and walks with a minor limp. He was last seen wearing a blue pullover, dark blue pants, brown shoes, and yellow leather work gloves.
