South Salt Lake police are asking for the public’s help to locate a missing and endangered man who walked away from the Meadow Brook Rehabilitation Center on Thursday afternoon.

Johnie Ray Turner, 56, is considered endangered because of a speech disability — his speech is “very garbled and is not understandable” — his “mental issues” and the fact that he left the facility at 2700 S. 433 East without proper clothing for the cold, snowy weather.

Turner is described as a white male, 6 feet tall, average build, gray hair and missing some teeth. He was last seen wearing a gray crew neck sweater, navy blue sweat pants and just one black shoe.
