The Unified Police Department is offering search monitors to people with cognitive conditions linked to wandering, such as Alzheimer's, autism, Down syndrome and dementia.
The LoJack SafetyNet monitor emits a radio signal from a device worn on the ankle or wrist, police wrote in a news statement Monday. If the wearer is reported missing, officers can use the signal to find the person.
There is a $99 enrollment fee and a monthly fee of $30.
For more information, call 877-434-6384.
