The Portland Police Bureau is asking for the public’s help in locating Arueda Willeto, who has bronchitis and has been diagnosed with dementia.
On December 26, 2022, just after 3:00 p.m., East Precinct officers were dispatched to a welfare check near the intersection of Northeast 127th Avenue and Northeast Glisan Street. The caller reported talking with an older adult female who appeared confused and lost. The confused woman said she wanted to go to 102nd Avenue but was walking in the opposite direction. The caller guided the woman in the right direction, and the woman walked off. The caller then called 911. Officers arrived but the woman could not be located.
At 3:33 p.m., a missing person call came in from the 700 Block of Northeast 102nd Avenue. The caller reported Willeto missing from Willeto’s home. Since the initial report there have been sightings of Arueda Willeto at 82nd Avenue, and at the Lloyd center, indicating Willeto is familiar with, and likely using public transit.
Willeto has bronchitis and has been diagnosed with dementia. She is 60-years-old and is described as a Native American female, standing 5’5” tall and weighing 140 lbs. Willeto was last seen wearing a black puffy jacket and blue Christmas pajama bottoms.
Anyone who sees Arueda Willeto is asked to immediately call 911.
