The RCMP says a vehicle belonging to a missing 57-year-old American woman has been found in a wooded area of New Brunswick.
Gretchen Fitzpatrick of Hyannis, Massachusetts, was last seen on July 14 near the Woodstock, N.B., border crossing.
Her vehicle was recovered deep in the woods in Chapmanville, about 70 kilometres away from Woodstock, on Sunday.
Police dogs and search and rescue teams have been in the area searching, but there have reportedly been no signs of her.
Fitzpatrick is described as being about five-foot-nine and 160 pounds.
She has blue eyes and brown hair, and may have been wearing glasses when she was last seen.
Police say Fitzpatrick suffers from a medical condition that may cause her to become disoriented.
Both police and her family are concerned for her wellbeing.
The RCMP is asking anyone with camps, or who may be in the area hunting in the coming days and weeks, to keep an eye out for any signs of the missing woman.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call the Western Valley Region RCMP at 506-325-3000.
