Man in his forties suffering from Alzheimer's disease reported as missing

In an update to our earlier report, we are pleased to announce that the 41-year-old man who went missing in Pforzheim on Tuesday afternoon has been found safe. The man, who is of athletic build, stands at 175 cm tall, and weighs approximately 85 kg, was last seen wearing a white t-shirt, blue Adidas jogging pants, and light blue sports shoes.

The man, who has a history of mental illness and is dependent on medication, was reported missing on Tuesday. His disappearance raised concerns due to his dependency on medication. He was last seen fleeing in the "Kanzlerwald" area on Wednesday morning at approximately 9:15 a.m.

Search efforts, including the use of a helicopter, were initiated to locate the missing man. However, these efforts were unsuccessful and were called off around 1:20 p.m. on the same day.

We would like to express our gratitude to the public for their assistance in sharing information about the missing man. The public can still report any information on the man's whereabouts to the Karlsruhe Homicide Squad at 0721/939-5555.
