Pittsburgh police are asking for the public’s help finding Sandra Fields, a 70-year-old woman who officers say has serious health conditions that may require medical attention. Fields was last spotted on Sept. 9 on Centre Avenue in the Hill District, and her family says they hadn’t heard from her since July, months before she went missing.
According to WPXI, Fields is described as 5 feet 6 inches tall and weighing around 100 pounds, with brown eyes and white-grey hair. Police say her health conditions are serious enough that she may need medical assistance, adding urgency to the search for her whereabouts.
Family Contact Gap Raises Concern
The timeline laid out by police is notable: Fields’ family last had contact with her in July, two months before she was seen on Centre Avenue in September. That gap, combined with her medical needs, is part of why investigators are treating her disappearance as a priority case, per the station’s report.
Anyone with information about Sandra Fields is being urged to call the Pittsburgh Police at 412-323-7141 or to dial 911. The same report notes both numbers as the primary ways for the public to relay tips.
Where to Direct Tips
The Investigations Branch of the Pittsburgh Bureau of Police handles cases involving missing persons. The city’s Police directory is also available. No additional details about Fields’ appearance at the time she was last seen, or where she may have gone afterward, have been released.
