The search intensifies for a missing 62-year-old Clarksville woman, as the Clarksville Police Department (CPD) reaches out to the public for aid. Barbara Spence, reported missing by her brother last Wednesday, who expressed concern about having not heard from her for several months, was last seen at her home on Hattie Lane, as reported by WSMV.
Her brother's worry is echoed by the CPD, which has released a description of Spence. She stands 5 feet 2 inches tall, weighs roughly 160 pounds, and, importantly might be traveling in a blue GMC Sierra with the Michigan license plate BYR-924. This detail of her possible means of transportation is significant though, details on her direction of travel remain unclear.
A statement obtained by Clarksville Now reiterated the CPD's appeal: "If anyone sees Spence or knows of her whereabouts, please call 911 so officers can check on her welfare or contact Detective Hensley at (931) 648-0656, ext. 5356."
Amid the circulation of images and information via social media, the Clarksville Police Department leveraged its digital presence to amplify the search. A post on the department's Facebook page included photos of Barbara Spence, heightening recognition which, could be crucial in a passerby's identification.
