Missing Elderly Delaware Couple Found In Pa.

STANTON, Del. (CBS 3) ― A missing elderly Delaware couple was found at a Pennsylvania hospital Wednesday.

Walter Janusz, 80, and his wife Grace, 82, of Stanton were last seen at about 1:30 p.m. Tuesday.

The couple apparently suffers from the early onset of Alzheimer's disease according to their son.

Police said the couple's credit card was used to purchase gas in Virginia on Tuesday evening. Just over 24 hours later, a nurse at Elkins Park Hospital in Cheltenham, Pa. noticed their vehicle and found the couple inside.

While they appeared disoriented, officials said the pair was in good health. Family members were notified by police.

Police said the couple vanished on a prior occasion, only to be found several hundred miles north of their home following a minor accident in New Jersey.
