The Tucson Police Department is asking for help from the public's assistance in locating missing 68-year-old David Read.
 
Read left his assisted living center at 8151 E. Speedway Blvd. on July 19 around 4:30 p.m. to attend church at 1950 S. Wilmot Rd.
 
The staff at the assisted living center learned Read had not returned to the facility and never went to church.
 
Read functions at a 10 to 12-year-old level and takes various medications and does not have them with him.
 
Read is described as an African American male, 5'6", 150 pounds with black hair, and brown eyes. He was last seen wearing a yellow dress shirt, red tie, dark button up vest and dark pants. He does wear glasses and walks with a limp. He is also missing several teeth.
 
Read is most likely on foot, but he does know how and frequently uses the bus system.
 
If you see Read or have any information on his whereabouts, please call 9-1-1 immediately.
