UPDATE: As of Thursday morning, the Orange County Sheriff’s Office confirms that Strong was found and is safe. No further updates at this time.
The Orange County’s Sheriff’s Office is asking for help locating Olivia Simone Strong.
The sheriff’s office issued a silver alert Wednesday afternoon for Strong, indicating that the missing individual is believed to be suffering from dementia or some other cognitive impairment.
Strong is 26 years old, 5’2 and 160 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Officials say she was last seen wearing a white and black stripped short sleeve shirt, black leggings, and white and yellow Converse tennis shoes.
According to the silver alert, Strong left her residence on Mandy Lane, just outside and slightly northeast of the Hillsborough town limits, without her cell phone.
The sheriff’s office said, while she has been missing on several prior occasions, it is “unusual for her to be away this long.” The length of her absence has caused increased concern for her well-being.
If you have any information about Strong’s whereabouts, officials ask that you call Investigator Kevin Stewart at (919) 245-2925.
