The North Carolina Center for Missing Persons issued a Silver Alert for Sidney Leeann McEllwee around 3:30 p.m. She was last seen at 201 Chimney Rise Drive and may be headed to Western Carolina University in Cullowhee, authorities said.

Developed in 2007, the Silver Alert system quickly notifies 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.
