MADISON COUNTY, Ind. -- A missing Anderson woman, who was the subject of a Silver Alert, was found safe Sunday night in Huntington County.

Joyce Shaw, 77, was last seen Saturday afternoon when she left her home for a Christmas party.

The Madison County Sheriff says Shaw used her debit card at a gas station in Indianapolis early Sunday morning.

Shortly before 5 p.m. on Sunday, deputies in Huntington County were called to a gas station for a report of a distressed elderly woman.

The clerk at the gas station said she was concerned for the woman's safety.

Huntington County deputies told the Madison County Sheriff's Department that Ms. Shaw is in good health other than being a little confused.

Deputies returned Ms. Shaw safely to her family.
