Man With Dementia Who Disappeared Reported Dead: Police

BELTSVILLE, MD — The brother of a retired Montgomery County firefighter who was missing for a week was found dead near Baltimore/Washington International Airport, authorities said.

Daniel Dehaven, 65, suffers from dementia and was last seen at about 11:30 a.m. January 2. He was at a Costco in the 10900 block of Baltimore Ave. in Beltsville, officials said.

Prince George's County Police announced DeHaven was found Tuesday evening in Anne Arundel County. A citizen out for a walk located DeHaven in a wooded area off Dorsey Road, police said.

Anne Arundel County Police said there are no suspicious factors in the death.

Dehaven's disappearance prompted concern due to the frigid conditions in the area last week.
