The Jackson Police Department is attempting to locate 31-year-old Taneja Patrick, the department said in a Facebook post.
Officials described Patrick as about 5-foot-2 to 5-foot-3 and weighing 115 pounds with light skin. She reportedly has a tattoo on her left ear and another on her right arm. She was last seen wearing black joggers, a black hoodie and army-colored Crocs and is believed to be driving a white Chevy Equinox.
The post did not specify when or where Patrick was last seen. The Jackson Police Department is the primary law enforcement agency for Jackson, Mississippi, and handles missing-person investigations in the city.
Police asked anyone who knows Patrick’s whereabouts to contact the Jackson Police Department at 601-720-7588 or 601-960-1234. We will provide more information as it becomes available.
