Under what circumstances can a person be classified as 'Endangered' in the Missing Person Category?

A person can be classified as 'Endangered' in the Missing Person Category primarily when their physical safety may be at risk. This classification is used to convey that the individual could be in a dangerous situation or jeopardy, such as being vulnerable to harm due to various factors, including mental health issues, medical conditions, or a possible abduction. The 'Endangered' status is meant to prioritize the urgency of locating the individual given the potential threats they may encounter.

The other options describe situations that may not inherently indicate that a person's safety is at risk. For instance, someone who has voluntarily left or sought isolation may be away by choice and, while missing, does not automatically fall under the 'Endangered' category if there is no suggestion that they are in danger. Missing persons cases must be assessed on their individual circumstances to classify them appropriately, focusing on potential risks to their safety, which aligns closely with the definition of being 'Endangered.'
