Missing Roosevelt Island woman identified

By Vinnie Rotondaro

A disoriented elderly woman found wandering the streets of Flushing 
this weekend was identified and returned to her family late Monday  
night.

The woman, Soo-Won Park, in her mid-70s, had apparently wandered from  
her home on Roosevelt Island. It is not known how she ended up in 
in Flushing.

Family members identified Park after seeing a photograph of her that 
police had circulated. She was taken home from Queens General Hospital 
shortly before midnight on Monday.

At 7:30 p.m. on Sunday police found Park at the corner of Main Street  
and Roosevelt Avenue. Police reports at the time said she was  
suffering from “diminished mental capabilities.” Speaking in an “Asian 
dialect,” as police put it, Park was unable to identify herself or to  
say where she lived.
