74-Year-Old Missing Woman Found Alive

The search for a 74-year-old woman who went missing last week has come to an end after she was found alive inside an abandoned shed on Saturday, Dallas police say.

Lillie Sanders was found just a block away from where she was last seen near Owega and Ramona Avenue, said Dallas police.

On Saturday morning, Sanders' family and the Dallas Police South Central Patrol officers created a search party in Dallas. Members of the Dallas County Sheriff's Office joined the search and were able to locate Sanders.

Upon their discovery, deputies found Sanders with a pillow and a pair of clothes.

Sanders was dehydrated but she did not suffer from any injuries, said police.

Dallas Fire-Rescue ambulance took Sanders to Parkland Memorial Hospital to be examined and receive treatment.
