STELLARTON, N.S. — A Nova Scotia man with intellectual disabilities who left a care facility in the Annapolis Valley in October has been located by police.

The parents of 25-year-old Landon Webb held a news conference last month to say they were concerned about his well being.

Darrell and Brenda Webb had said they were worried about the health of their son since he left the Kings Regional Rehabilitation Centre in the Annapolis Valley.

RCMP Const. Mark Skinner says that Landon was located in Edmonton last week, and arrangements were made through the family to provide him transport back to Nova Scotia.

Skinner says that Landon went missing again from Bible Hill on Saturday, and was located in Stellarton on Wednesday.
