Missing woman last seen at Bradenton bus station has been safely located, cops say

The Manatee County Sheriff’s Office issued a missing and endangered alert for Lydia Lynette Jackson on Wednesday and is reporting that as of Thursday afternoon she has been found.

The 28-year-old woman went missing last Friday at the bus station located at 600 301 Blvd. W. in Bradenton, the sheriff’s office says.

A recent medication change was causing Jackson to suffer from unstable behavior, the sheriff’s office says. As a result, Jackson’s mother took her to a medical office for help. Jackson fled the facility on foot without her new prescription, but is reported to be OK, according to the sheriff’s office.
