Missing Arlington Heights man found

An Arlington Heights man reported missing since Friday has been located, police said Tuesday morning.

Arlington Heights Detective Sgt. Chuck Buczynski said Tuesday that 65-year-old Robert Wood had turned up alive and well at a Chicago police station on Tuesday.

"It turns out he and his caretaker went on a trip," Buczynski said. "I didn't ask where they went."

Buczynski said Wood was physically and mentally fine.

A neighbor reported Wood missing, having not seen him since Friday, March 2.

Wood was scheduled to appear in Cook County court Tuesday on a misdemeanor criminal charge. Information was not immediately available as to whether he made that appearance.
