My sister has been missing for almost a week now after she was taken into the care of the state and escaped St. Luke’s Hospital in New Bedford. She homeless, suffers from addiction and mental health issues. My mother has filed a missing person’s with New Bedford Police Department.
The family believes that since she left the hospital with only clothing offered there she may have asked a stranger for a ride, use their phone, or help to go towards Cambridge-Somerville.
If anyone has seen her please call the New Bedford Police Department at (508) 991-6300. Thank you.”
