Silver Alert Canceled – 87-Year-Old Oakfield Man Found Safe

A Silver Alert has been canceled after an 87-year-old man from Oakfield was found safe. 

Who's Missing?

The Aroostook County Sheriff's Office was asking for the public's help locating Gordon Morton, 87, of Oakfield.

Where Was He Last Seen?

It was approximately 9:30 Thursday night when Mr. Morton was last seen at his River Road home. Mr. Morton suffers from cognitive issues so his family became concerned when he failed to show up at his sister's house in Oakfield, as planned. Maine Department of Public Safety spokesperson Shannon Moss says his possible last known location was Enfield but he may be in the Presque Isle or Houlton areas.
