INDIANAPOLIS — IMPD is asking the public for help locating a missing Indianapolis man.
Skyler Griffey, 28, was last seen in the 6100 block of Nelson Place, which is near East 10th Street and North Arlington Avenue on the east side. However, police believe he may be in the Johnson County area.
Griffey is described as 6 feet tall and 225 pounds and is known to drive a black Honda Ridgeline. Police say Griffey may be in need of immediate medical attention.
Anyone with information should call IMPD Missing Persons at 317-327-6160 or dial 911.
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.
