Silver Alert canceled for 74-year-old Ahwatukee woman found safe

PHOENIX – A Silver Alert was canceled on Tuesday after a missing 74-year-old Ahwatukee woman with a cognitive condition was found safe, according to authorities.

Carol Becvar was located in the San Carlos Reservation just before noon on Tuesday after a single-vehicle collision into a ravine, according to the release.

Authorities aren’t sure how long Becvar was in the vehicle before being located by the forestry department.

She was transported to the hospital as a precaution with minor injuries.

Becvar left her Ahwatukee home near 24th Street and Chandler Boulevard Monday morning at 9:15 a.m. to go to a doctor’s appointment but never arrived, according to authorities.
