The Van Buren County Sheriff's Office is asking for the public's help in locating a 73-year-old man who has not been seen since Monday. He has health issues and needs medication.

Deputies responded to a residence in Bangor Township for an elderly missing report.

John Yore, 73, left on Monday afternoon to make a trip to an unknown place in Indianapolis. He hasn't been heard from since.

Yore is a white male, 6-feet tall, weighs approximately 300 pounds, has gray hair, and a false eye.

He was last seen wearing blue jeans, white t-shirt and baseball cap with Yore Place written on it.
