A missing elderly man was found dead inside an elevator—a month after he pressed the emergency alarm.

The body of Isaak Komisarchik, 82, was found in an apartment complex’s elevator in Denver, reported the Denver Post. He had reportedly been missing since July 5— his family said he suffered from dementia.

On July 6, he had pressed the elevator alarm twice, police investigating his death told ABC 7.

Officials are investigating why no one responded to his death. His body was found at the Woodstream Village apartments, 10050 East Harvard Avenue, on July 31.

“Something is not right,” Denver Fire Department spokesman Capt. Greg Pixley was quoted by the Denver Post as saying. The alarm was recorded twice but officials never got the call.
