An elderly woman with dementia has been found after going missing from her Wellington home on Sunday.
The 79-year-old was last seen driving away from her home on Rintoul St, Newtown in a distinctive red Mitsubishi Colt.
“She was located yesterday afternoon at a premises in Wellington and is now safely back with family,” police said.
They said previously it was possible she was trying to get to church or another place known to her but has since gotten lost.
