UPDATE: Missing Vulnerable Adult Wilma Robertson Safe

Missing Vulnerable Adult Wilma Robertson has been located.  She is receiving medical attention at this time for exposure but preliminary evaluations indicate she is expected to make a full recovery.

Deputies searching the area developed a probable last seen point allowing for a coordinated search to begin.  Approximately 25 volunteer members and three K9 Teams of the Spokane County Search & Rescue (SAR) Unit assisted by Spokane County Fire District 2, Spokane County Fire District 12 and Air 1 began an exhaustive search of a large area approximately 3/4 of a mile from Robertson’s residence.

At approximately 7:15 p.m. this evening, K9 SAR Volunteer Moug & K9 Max located Robertson in a ravine huddled under a tree.  Robertson was provided immediate medical attention and from initial information, she is expected to be fine.  

We thank all of our SAR Volunteers & K9s for always answering the call to search, day or night regardless of weather conditions, and find our Community’s lost or vulnerable. 

Without the coordinated effort of the SAR Volunteers, Spokane County Fire District 2 and Spokane County Fire District 12, this search would have probably ended with fatal results.
