The Dallas Police Department confirmed Wednesday that Annie McCoy, the 77-year-old woman reported missing earlier this week, had been safely located. Details about her discovery have not been revealed, but the revelation has alleviated local anxieties.
Ms. McCoy’s disappearance sparked a citywide search, with authorities turning to the public for help after her last sighting on September 17, 2025. She had been spotted around 7:00 p.m. on the 200 block of W Overton Road, Dallas, Texas, before disappearing.
