A statewide Silver Alert continues for a 69-year-old Kansas man who was been missing since late 2019.

The fear is months will turn into years in the disappearance of Kenneth ‘Kenny' Reitcheck. That fall, the Salina Police Department and Kansas Bureau of Investigation issued the alert and asked for the public's help in locating Reitcheck.

He was last seen on Nov. 4, 2019, in Salina. He stands 5'9'', weighs about 175 pounds, has blue eyes and gray hair. 

Authorities say Reitcheck suffers from "diminished mental health capabilities" and is on disability, but has not tried to access the funds since he was last seen.

He's from Salina, but may have family in northwest Kansas, possibly around Colby. 

Reitcheck doesn't have a phone, vehicle or any identification. Anyone with information is urged to call the Salina Police Department at (785) 826-7210.
