It is unusual for Josie to go this long without contacting friends or family which has caused concern. We’d like to make sure she is alright, said Cst. Monika Terragni, Media Relations Officer, Comox Valley RCMP. She has connections in Victoria and may have headed in that direction if she is no longer in the Comox Valley. She added.

 

If you see Josie Van Der Elst, or know where she may be, please call the Comox Valley RCMP at (250) 338-1321.
