Hayward Police Locate Man Who Vanished After Calling Family To Say He Was Lost

HAYWARD (CBS SF) -- A 61-year-old man who vanished Friday evening after calling his family to say he was lost in Hayward has been located and is in good condition, police said Saturday morning.

Santiago Aguilar-Rios had gone missing around 7:30 p.m. after he called his family in Hayward to say he was lost and at a Jack in the Box restaurant, police said.

After Aguilar-Rios' family reported him missing to police, officers determined he had been at the Jack in the Box at 1490 W. Winton Ave., according to police.

There officers found the man's cellphone, but could not locate Aguilar-Rios.

A business owner Saturday morning then found Aguilar-Rios and helped him contact his family, before offering him a cup of coffee, police said.

Police had considered him to be at-risk because he suffers from a medical condition which causes him to be confused and requires medication, according to police.
