Missing man from Larue found safe

Black is at a healthcare facility in Rusk, according to an employee at the facility.

SMITH COUNTY, Texas — A Larue man who was reported missing last week in the Tyler area was found safe Wednesday night.

According to the Smith County Sheriff's Office, George Black has been located in Rusk.

An employee from a healthcare facility called the sheriff's office after seeing him on a media outlet to inform them Black had checked into the facility. 

Black, who is originally from Larue, was last seen on July 8 on Jennifer Drive off of FM 756 near Tyler. 

About three weeks ago, Black was seen for chest pain but he is not on any medication. The sheriff's office said Black had not contacted his family or friends before he went missing.
