Missing mother seen in Dordogne: call for witnesses
Her car was reportedly seen in Charente-Maritime
Police in the south-west of France have launched an appeal for information after the disappearance of a woman from the Aveyron department.
Sandra Lacombe, 42, was last seen by her family on Friday (March 1), in Montbazens (Aveyron), who alerted the police to her disappearance.
She was seen in a hotel in Bergerac, Dordogne, on Saturday, before disappearing once again.
The police appeal describes Mrs Lacombe as “1 metre 65 in height, average body size, light brown hair, and white skin colour,” adding that she “is in possession of her handbag but not her mobile phone.”
Anyone with information is asked to call the Capdenac police department on 05 65 64 71 16.
The full appeal can be seen on social media below:

It was allegedly seen in Saintes, Charente-Maritime on Monday (March 4), but this has not been confirmed.
