Lincolnton man found Tuesday
A 21-year-old Lincolnton area man who has the cognitive abilities of a 12-year-old and went missing from his home Sunday night was found Tuesday afternoon.
Taz Damian Douglas Scronce was found by searchers in woods near his home on Rain Tree Lane, off N.C. 150 just west of Forest Lawn Cemetery.
Scronce left a note saying he was going to stay with a friend, but family members contacted all of his friends and no one had seen or heard from him, the Lincoln County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release.
He was found in good condition about 3:15 p.m.
