BERLIN, Mass. — A Massachusetts man who went missing on a trip to Market Basket on Wednesday night was located in Connecticut, officials said.

Officers launched a search for 83-year-old Lawrence Fuller, of Berlin, after he departed for Market Basket’s Hudson location around 7 p.m. and then wasn’t seen thereafter, according to the Berlin Police Department.
