Independent Journalism in Phoenix Needs You
We need to raise $15,000 by August 9 to support the reporting our community depends on. Reader support keeps us independent and is playing a larger role in funding local journalism and shaping what comes next. If you believe independent local journalism matters, make a contribution today.
We’re happy to report that the Phoenix man who was reported missing over the weekend was found alive today.
Donald Scarsdale was found on the side of the road in Pinal County, authorities say.
Scarsdale, 79, left his home near 39th Avenue and Camelback Road about
7:45 p.m. yesterday. He was last seen driving a white 2010 Toyota Tacoma
extended cab pickup truck with Arizona license plate AKJ9278.
Scarsdale suffers from several medical conditions, possibly including onset dementia. Police say he may seem confused.
He was taken to an area hospital to get checked out.
