Endangered man found

John P. Robinson

Sub­mit­ted by Char­lotte County Sheriff’s Office

The Char­lotte County Sheriff’s Office reports that the 62-year-old miss­ing and endan­gered man has been located nearly 30 hours after he left his Port Char­lotte home on McDill Drive in Port Charlotte.

Fri­day after­noon, CCSO received a call that a green Sat­urn in the park­ing lot near Winn-Dixie, 3280 Tami­ami Trail, Port Char­lotte, may be the miss­ing man the Sheriff’s Office had been look­ing for. Deputies from the CCSO Mid County Office, behind Winn-Dixie, quickly responded and con­firmed the New York license plate and found John P. Robin­son sit­ting in his car. Detec­tives said Robin­son was in good health.
