The Gwinnett Police Department needs the public’s help in locating a missing, elderly male with dementia and no cell phone.

Gregory Martine (age 70) was last seen at 1995 Mall of Georgia Blvd (Millian Eye Center). Family members contacted law enforcement when Gregory walked away from the waiting room at the eye center. Gregory recently moved to Georgia from Florida and would not know his new home address.

He is approximately 5 feet tall, 10 inches and weighs 155 lbs. He has dark hair, black eyes, a black and gray beard, and wears reading glasses.

Can't be of help here. God Bless them all.

So many appointments. Catching up. Hands on care. No easy task.

Hoping Mr. Martine is found real soon and safe.

Family is posting on PD FB thread linked above, there may have been a sighting according to a post made 2 hours ago.

Sounds like police are doing a lot to find him, flyovers announcing that he’s lost with his description, officers going door to door and a good bit of community involvement. Hopefully he will be found soon.

Found safe, spotted by a witness.

A witness, Jason Janifer, said he had just been on the WSB News app and saw Martin’s picture when he thought he spotted him sitting at a table at a gas station in the rain.

“When I pulled up to the pump, my heart started racing,” Janifer said. “I looked at my phone at your story with the picture, and I’m looking directly across the lot at the man.”

Janifer took his own picture to compare, and then went to help. Janifer said he asked Martin how he was feeling.
