POCOLA, Okla. (AP) - Police
in Pocola say the body of a 74-year-old woman missing since Oct. 17 has
been found in a dried creek bed in the eastern Oklahoma town.
Cpl. Barry Riggs says the
body of Ruby Poole was found Saturday and that there are no signs of
foul play. Riggs says the body will be sent to the state medical
examiner to determine the cause of death because her death was
unattended.
Police say Poole suffered
dementia and is believed to have wandered away from her home - which is
four to five miles from where her body was found.
