ANDERSON, Ind. — A Silver Alert has been canceled for an Anderson couple that had been missing since Sunday.
Police said they searched well into the night Monday for the couple. Cody Bennett, 21, and Carley Davis, 24, were last seen around 4 p.m. in the 200 block of Mill Stream Lane, near West Eighth Street and Spring Valley Drive.
Late Monday afternoon, Indiana State Police declared a statewide Silver Alert for the couple, saying both are believed to be in extreme danger and may require medical assistance. There was a search effort that police said went late into Monday night. They used drones, K-9s and did a detailed search along the river.
Police then turned to checking local trails and adjoining communities. They also collected forensic data from personal phones and computers.
In an update Tuesday, Anderson Police said the search is ongoing and police are following up on leads. About an hour after the update from Anderson Police, Indiana State Police canceled the Silver Alert.
Madison County Sheriff Scott Mellinger told our partners at the Herald Bulletin the couple was found safe but dehydrated. They were taken to the hospital to be checked out.
Amber Alert vs. Silver Alert: What's the difference?
There are specific standards a person's disappearance must meet in order for police to declare an Amber Alert or a Silver Alert.
Amber Alerts are for children under the age of 18 who are believed to have been abducted and in danger. Police also need to have information about a suspect and their car to issue an Amber Alert.
Silver Alerts are for missing and endangered adults or children. They are much more common for missing people. It was not until last year when the standards for Silver Alerts were expanded to include children.
In both situations, these alerts must be issued by police.
