Missing Person: Norman Hagen

Where was he last seen?
Missing person in Montana. Norman Hagen, an 83-year-old man, was last seen having dinner with his family at Bigfork Wine and Whiskey in Bigfork, Montana. This was on March 15 at 6:30 PM. After that, he did not return home, and his whereabouts remain unknown. His family is deeply concerned, as he has early-stage dementia and may be disoriented or lost.
Norman Hagen: Vehicle and Movements
Norman was driving a silver 2008 Saturn Aura with Montana license plate 716045C. The last known activity from his AirTag was recorded at 8:48 PM. Concerned family members immediately went to that location, where they encountered a man who provided crucial information. He stated that Norman had a flat tire, and he assisted him in putting on a spare tire. Once the repair was done, Norman mentioned he was heading toward Missoula, a direction that made no sense to his family. They have no known reason for him to be traveling in that area, which raises further concerns about his well-being.
Why is it important to find him?
Norman’s early-stage dementia means he may not recognize his surroundings or remember his intended destination. At 83 years old, he is particularly vulnerable to confusion, exposure, and possible accidents. If he is lost or stranded somewhere without help, his health and safety could be at serious risk.
Additionally, Montana’s unpredictable weather conditions at this time of year could put him in further danger if he remains outdoors for extended periods. With a missing person case like this, time is critical. The sooner he is found, the better the chances of ensuring his safe return home.
