Search and rescue crews, including three volunteers from Lincoln County, have been looking for a 52-year-old Weeks Mills woman missing in the West Forks area of northern Somerset County.
Authorities say the woman was “despondent” prior to entering the woods of her own volition. Her vehicle was found at her family’s property in the area.
“The Warden’s service has been scouring the area, but she knows the area very well,” said State Police Spokesman Steve McCausland.
The woman’s name has not been released. Crews have been searching for her since Oct. 30. On Oct. 31, three members of the Lincoln County Search and Rescue team joined the efforts.
As of press time in the morning on Nov. 2, no additional information on the woman’s whereabouts was available.
