Four local kids teamed up to find a 97-year-old woman who went missing from their neighborhood when everyone else had failed.

In Roseville, California, a 97-year-old woman by the name of Glenneta Belford went missing from her home according to KTXL Sacremento News.

Glenneta suffers from dementia and was known to hide sometimes. After discovering her missing, the police department was notified, and they acted quickly in their pursuit of finding the elderly woman.

The police announced through a helicopter flying around in the area that they were searching for a missing 97-year-old woman. Hearing the announcement, Logan Hultman, a ten-year-old boy, and his friends decided that they wanted to help find Glenneta. So, they all got on their bikes and set out to help find her.

While searching for her, Logan had an accident and fell off of his bike, but that didn't stop him from continuing the search. His mother told USA Today:

 "Even after Logan took a fall down a hill, the kids went back ... out and were very determined." Adding, "they told us that they are going to be the ones that find her." 

He made a quick stop at home to eat some dinner and bandage up his scrapes before he set back out on his bike in his search, once again.

After a long search, Logan and his friends managed to find Glenetta a couple of blocks from their homes. The children called the Police to notify them they had found her. 

"This is a great example of our exceptional community coming together to lend a helping hand," police said in a statement on social media. "This proves a great point, age is just a number and anyone can help out in a time of need."
