Deploy Investigator

  • Two National Park Service Investigators arrive and determine the following:
  • The subject's name is Oluf, a resident of Sweden.  He has been in the United States for a month, as part of a two month visit with his family.  He goes by the name of Oluf and speaks only limited English.  A physical description is taken.  He wears glasses and other than his passport wallet, he has no other equipment with him.  He does not smoke.  He has no physical disabilities or medical problems.  He is not taking any medications.
  • The family reports he has not been diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease.  He has not been taken to a doctor for a diagnosis.  However, the family reports during the past 6 months they have noticed an increase in confusion and forgetfulness.  It also appears his short term memory is worse.  He is able to dress and wash himself.  He is able to cook, but on occasion will put ice-cream in the refrigerator, or the ice cube tray in the toaster oven.  He is able to take his daily 2-4 mile walk back in Sweden without getting lost.  He has managed to incorrectly balance his checking account the past three months.  Lately he seems a little bit more agitated.
  • Subject retired 15 years ago as a watch repairer.
  • Subject has walked and hiked his entire life.
  • Subject has been at the campground for three days.  Three days ago when first arriving, he said he was going for a short 30 minute walk but did not return for an hour and a half.  When the family asked what took so long, he replied he got side tracked and lost track of time.
  • Subject has never wandered away in Sweden
  • Safe Return program has been contacted.  Subject was not in database.  However, information will be forwarded to all local jurisdictions.
  • Subject information flyer prepared and sent to all local media outlets.
  • Radio report sent to surrounding jurisdictions.
  • Subject entered into NCIC and VCIN.
  • Contacted all local hospitals (emergency room and psychiatric ward).
  • Contacted all local rescue squads and fire departments.
  • Contacted local shelters.
  • Contacted Virginia State Police.
  • Contacted local morgues and medical examiner's office.
  • Ran check on subject's credit cards -- no activity listed.
  • Ran criminal background checks on subject and family- no criminal background.
  • Ran criminal background checks on all cars parked at campground- nothing significant.
  • Canvass campground - nothing significant - the guy likes to walk.
  • Investigator's working hypothesis- he is lost out in the woods.
