Missing Florida man found safe after Silver Alert issued in Manatee County

A Silver Alert issued for 58-year-old Florida man Randy Howard has been canceled.

Howard has been located and is OK, the Manatee County Sheriff’s Office said on Wednesday evening. The update came about two hours after the missing person alert was sent out.

Howard had last been seen Monday on Oneil Road, just south of Buckeye Road, in northwest Manatee County, according to the sheriff’s office. Law enforcement had asked for drivers to look out for a blue Honda sedan.
