The Worcester Police Department is putting out a renewed plea for assistance in the case of Sabrina Hatheway, a city resident missing since 2014. Details shared via social media illustrate a frustrating cold case that, despite the passage of over a decade, remains unsolved. Hatheway, who was 24 years at the time of her disappearance, was last seen at a residence on Dixfield Road.
Complicating the disappearance, the house where Hatheway was last known to be present was engulfed in flames on New Year's Day of 2015. More than eleven years have lapsed since the fire, and Hatheway's family has been seeking closure ever since. Detectives assigned to the Unresolved Homicide Unit, in conjunction with the Special Crimes Missing Person's Unit, are leading the persistent investigation.
In an effort to collect fresh leads, the Worcester Police implores anyone with information related to Hatheway's disappearance to step forward. Escalating the urgency, the department has offered an anonymous tip line for those who might possess crucial, yet undisclosed, insights. "If you know anything about the disappearance of Sabrina Hatheway, please contact the Worcester Police Department’s Unresolved Homicide Unit’s anonymous tip line at 508-799-8688," read the call to action disseminated through the department's communication channels.
For those preferring the discretion of a text message, the department has provided a convenient option. Starting a new message to CRIMES (274637) with the keyword “TIPWPD,” followed by the relevant information, can securely transmit a tip.
