An elderly woman with Alzheimer’s disease who went missing Friday after arriving on a flight at O’Hare International Airport has been found safe.

Maria Brito, 76, was last seen exiting Terminal 3 at O’Hare after arriving on a flight from Mexico, according to a missing person alert from Chicago Police.

Late Friday afternoon, police said Brito had been found and reunited with her family “without incident.”

The family had been planning a press conference and prayer vigil for Friday afternoon.
