A Silver Alert has been issued for a missing Centereach woman, who Suffolk County police said suffers from depression -- and may be suicidal.
Celeste Nazario, 60, of Rosemary Lane, was last seen by her landlord Saturday at about 10 a.m., police said Monday. Police described Nazario as 4 feet, 10 inches tall, about 125 pounds, with brown hair and brown eyes.
She was seen leaving her house, wearing shorts -- possibly beige, police said.
Silver Alerts are issued to allow law enforcement to share crucial information regarding people with special needs, including cognitive disabilities, who have gone missing.
Police are asking anyone with information regarding Nazario to call 911 or the Sixth Squad at 631-854-8652.
