Investigators of the Flagstaff Police Department and Coconino County Sheriff’s Office located Salvatore Pascarelli, declared a missing person, on Saturday, July 3, in Las Vegas.

Pascarelli reportedly took a Greyhound bus from Flagstaff to Las Vegas on July 3 due to difficulties with his feet affecting his ability to continue walking for his cause.

Pascarelli went to Las Vegas instead of Yuma to stay with a family member and recover.

Pascarelli’s GPS and cell phone had gotten wet in Flagstaff and became inoperable. Pascarelli contacted his girlfriend on Saturday to let her know of his change of route and was told at that time of his being reported as a missing person.

Pascarelli went to the Las Vegas Metro Police Department and advised them that he was reported as a missing person.

Pascarelli had been last in Flagstaff on Sunday, June 27, at 9:30 p.m. per his GPS locator. Pascarelli told his girlfriend on June 27 that he was leaving Flagstaff on June 28, and was heading to Yuma, according to the Coconino County Sheriff’s Office.

Pascarelli is on a cross-country hiking journey from Florida to San Diego to raise awareness for cancer.
