A woman who went missing from Shropshire two weeks ago today could be wild camping, say police.
Christine Fish, 55, disappeared from Market Drayton on 26 February.
She is described as white, 5'7", slim build, with grey, shoulder-length hair.
She was last seen wearing a Lilo and Stitch jumper, a purple/black Regatta coat, black jeans, trainers, and a rainbow-coloured scarf.
Detective Inspector Richard Davies said: “Today marks two weeks since Christine was last seen by her family and as more time goes on the more concern we have for her welfare.
“Christine is a keen walker, and she would be capable of travelling some distance, so I ask people from across Shropshire to report any sightings of her. We also know she purchased a tent whilst in Blacks and she could well be camping somewhere rural.
“Following our enquiries we do not believe there to be any third-party involvement in her disappearance and ask you to contact us with any information, however small you may feel it may be, as it could well be the vital piece that we need to locate her”.
What police know so far:
- 26 February: Christine was last seen at her home in Market Drayton
- 28 February: CCTV captures Christine walking out of Blacks store in Shoplatch in Shrewsbury around 9:15am. She bought a new black jacket that she may now be wearing. Around 9:40am, she is captured on CCTV walking into WH Smith on Castle Street, Shrewsbury. At 10am, CCTV shows her at Shrewsbury Train Station.
- 3 March: police believe her phone is used in Sutton Hill in Telford around 4pm.
