CHARLOTTE, N.C. — The Charlotte-Mecklenburg Police Department said a woman they say wasn't at her home when they tried checking in on her Saturday afternoon was found safe the next day.

Officers said they went to check in on her along Ivystone Court around 1 p.m. Saturday, but she was not found at her home. Her family was worried for her safety as she may be living with undiagnosed medical or cognitive issues.
