On July 15, 2013, at about 9:20 pm, M.L.P.D. officers were dispatched to the Twin Lakes Campground regarding a missing male adult with Down Syndrome. The male adult was wearing only a t-shirt, shorts and shoes on this chilly night.

Upon arrival the responding officer was overwhelmed with campers, young and old searching for the male adult. Campers were yelling out the subjects name and flashlights were gleaming in the dark night.

Mono County Search and Rescue, Mammoth Lakes Fire Department and the Mono County Sheriff’s Department were notified and were responding to the area. At about 9:58 pm, a camper called the Mono County Sheriff’s dispatch center advising the dispatcher that they located the male adult.

When the Mammoth Lakes Police Officer asked the adult if he wanted to walk with the campers back to his camp or ride in the police vehicle, the adult stated without hesitation, “police car.” The adult was reunited with his father due to the overwhelming response of all the campers.
