EARLIER STORY:

Gurmail Sandhu was last seen at 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, in the 8900 block of Queen Mary Boulevard in Surrey.

If located, please stay with her and call police.

Gurmail Sandhu is described as a 66-year-old South Asian female, 5’6”, with white hair and brown eyes.

She was last seen wearing a long green traditional shirt and pants. Police and family are concerned for her health and well-being.

Anyone with more information is asked to contact the Surrey RCMP at 604-599-0502 and quote file# 2022-175486.
