Unknown man found outside center wearing diaper and teddy bear
Florence authorities search for identity after a adult male, estimated 20 to 25, was found wandering outside the Palmetto Center treatment facility. The sandy haired, blue eyed man could only identify himself as Ian, Brian or Ryan. He wore a diaper, carried a green bag with new clothes and a pink stuffed kitten, and cried for mama. Nurses recalled him as cold and frightened, acting like a child. Despite checks with nursing homes and motels, no leads emerged as investigators circulated his photo. He remains in state care at Pee Dee Regional Center pending identification.
