Police say Dolores Urquidi did not have access to a vehicle of her own and may be on foot, using a walker. 

Due to Urquidi’s age, limited mobility, and chronic health conditions, police say they were concerned about her immediate welfare. 

APD confirmed Urquidi had been safely located via a tweet at 2:30 p.m. Friday.
