SHELBY COUNTY, Indiana — A statewide Silver Alert has been canceled for a 19-year-old from Shelbyville.

A spokesperson with the Shelby County Sheriff's Department confirmed family has made contact with 19-year-old Logan Meadows.

Deputies said Meadows was last seen Wednesday, July 26 at noon in Shelbyville. 

The Silver Alert was issued Aug. 10 around 2 p.m. and was canceled Aug. 15 shortly before 10 a.m.

Shelbyville is roughly 35 miles southeast of downtown Indianapolis.

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.
