Police issue updated info in relation to missing senior; investigators looking to speak with witnesses & driver of Pontiac Montana: The Edmonton Police Service ...(EPS) continues to seek the public’s assistance in locating missing 73-year-old Carole Byrne, who was last seen in southwest Edmonton on Tuesday, November 10, 2020. Ms. Byrne is described as a white female, who stands 5’3" tall and weighs approximately 110 pounds. It is believed she may be wearing a black, length winter jacket with a brown fur trim on the hood, a black toque and mittens, and black leather hiking boots. The EPS issued a news release on Tuesday, November 10, 2020, indicating that Ms. Byrne was last seen walking away from her residence near Lessard Drive and 57 Avenue at approximately 2:15 p.m. on the same day (Nov. 10, 2020). Further investigation has revealed that Ms. Byrne was seen approximately an hour later, around 3:15 p.m. that day, on foot near the intersection of Cameron Heights and Chahley Way. Investigators have also obtained residential video surveillance from the area of Clement Court and Chahley Landing, which shows Ms. Byrne speaking with members of the public during her walk, as well as someone driving a dark colored Pontiac Montana. Police are looking to speak with any of those citizens who spoke with Ms. Byrne, as well as the driver of the Pontiac Montana (photo of vehicle in link below). Police and family continue to be concerned for Ms. Byrne’s well-being as it is out of character for her to not advise family of her whereabouts and to not return home after a walk. Investigators do not suspect foul play at this time. http://dlvr.it/Rlf19h
