CLAYTON, N.C. — Clayton teen Angelia Dunn, who was the subject of a Silver Alert Saturday afternoon, has been found, police said Sunday.

No other details were released.  Angelia, 14, who has a cognitive impairment, was last seen at her home on Chesterfield Drive on Saturday.

Authorities canceled the Silver Alert around 6:15 p.m. Sunday.

Developed in 2007, Silver Alert is a system to quickly notify the public about missing endangered adults who suffer from dementia or other cognitive impairments, such as Alzheimer's disease.

It also allows caregivers and nursing homes to report a person missing. In the past, only a family member could report an adult missing.
