Police fears for missing woman, Stacey Ruth Phillips

8:56am Tuesday 18th September 2012 in News

POLICE in York are urgently trying to trace a woman who is missing from home.

Stacey Ruth Phillips, 23, of Fossway, has not been seen since leaving her house at 11am on Saturday. Officers are concerned for Stacey’s wellbeing and fear she may present a danger to herself after a recent bout of depression.

Police have launched extensive inquires in the York area, but she is also known to have links to the Manchester area and may have travelled there by train.

She is 5ft 2in, of heavy build with very long dark brown dreadlocked hair which is tied up in a bun. She was wearing a long black cardigan with pockets but no buttons, blue knee-length leggings and white plimsolls with lace netting.

PC Steve Skeoch said: “We are hoping that Stacey sees or hears this urgent appeal and makes contact with the police or her family as soon as possible.”

“Everyone is worried sick, we just need to know that Stacey is safe and well.

“If anyone has seen Stacey or has possibly noticed a woman matching her description, please pass the information onto the police to assist the missing from home inquiry.” Anyone who can help should phone North Yorkshire Police on 101.
