Police concerned for missing woman with dementia
Police are growing increasingly concerned for a woman who has gone missing from an address in Halesowen.
Jacqueline Bache was staying with a relative in Huntingtree Road last night but is believed to have left the house at around 5am this morning and has not been seen since.
The 68-year-old has recently been diagnosed with early onset dementia and has some short term memory loss that could lead her to become confused and disoriented.
She is described as white, 5ft 7ins tall, slim build, short brown hair and has a local accent. She is believed to be wearing a navy blue anorak with a white hood, black jeans, black and white striped jumper and grey shoes.
PC Paul Moulsdale, from Dudley Police, said: "We need help from the public to find Jacqueline as quickly as possible.
"She is particularly vulnerable and we know she could have become confused and got lost in the Halesowen area. If you've seen her please get in touch with us as soon as possible."
Anyone with information should call Dudley Police on 101 or contact Missing People on 116 000.
