East Ridge police seek missing woman
East Ridge are asking for the public’s help in locating a 68-year-old woman who authorities fear may have harmed herself.
Nancy Williams was last seen by her husband Monday morning as he left their Meadowlark Trail home to go to work, said East Ridge Police Detective Gwen Cribbs.
Williams, who has a long history of mental illness, recently made a comment that if she were to kill herself she would want to die by asphyxiation. Her family noticed a water hose is missing at their home.
Williams turned off her cell phone a few days before she disappeared, so authorities can’t trace her using that method, Cribbs said.
