Deputies Find Diabetic Man Kicked Off Train
Passenger Barefoot, Dehydrated, Disoriented, Deputies Say

WILLIAMS, Ariz. -- A 65-year-old St. Louis man who went missing Sunday night after Amtrak personnel, mistaking his diabetic shock for drunk and disorderly behavior, kicked him off a train in the middle of a national forest, has been found two miles from where he was dropped off, according to police in Williams.

Police said Roosevelt Sims, a factory worker who had just retired last week, was discovered Thursday night walking along the railroad tracks barefoot by Coconino County sheriff's deputies.

Deputies said he was dehydrated and disoriented.

Oh My Goodness!! That is just terrible! I wonder if he had a medic alert bracelet or if they even bothered to look for one! They should not drop anone off like that! Poor man could have died so easily...someone must have been watching over him! Shame on Amtrax!!

Good Grief What a terrible thing to do to anyone!!!
