Lawrence police are asking for the public’s help to find Phyllis Krump, 72.

Krump was last seen outside her home in the 1500 block of Foxfire Drive just after 2 p.m. Saturday, according to a social media post from the police department.

Krump is a Black woman with dark hair that’s graying at the temples. She’s 5-foot-five and weighs about 150 pounds, according to the post. She was last seen wearing all white.

Krump was on foot. It is out of the ordinary for her to walk away from home, and she has dementia, according to the post.

Police ask people to call dispatch at 785-843-0250 or call 911 if they see Krump.
