The public’s help is being sought in locating a 73-year-old Northern Kentucky man who reportedly has been missing and unheard from for three weeks.
Walter Sartory, 73, of the 3200 block of Campaign Drive in Hebron was last seen around Feb. 15, 2009, according to the Boone County Sheriff’s Department.
Sartory lives alone but is in regular contact with out-of-town friends, according to authorities. One of those friends first asked the sheriff’s department to check the man’s residence on Feb. 26. Since then, four additional checks, including one in which authorities gained entry to the residence, have failed to locate the missing man.
On March 4, a missing person's investigation was initiated since Sartory’s medication was left at his home and all attempts to find him have been to no avail.
Sartory’s silver 2007 Toyota Prius bearing Kentucky license 899-HXH is also missing from the residence.
Anyone who sees Sartory or knows of his whereabouts is urged to call 911 immediately.
