Original story July 26, 2023:
Vancouver police are asking the public for help locating a missing 70-year-old woman.
Rizalina Frondo is new to Canada and unfamiliar with Vancouver. She left her home at Main and East 16th Avenue around 8 p.m. on July 25 with the intention of meeting her family at a nearby park. She did not show up at the park and has not returned home.
Rizalina is Asian, five feet tall with a slim build, and short grey hair and was last seen wearing a white and pink striped shirt, orange shorts, and brown slippers.
She speaks very little English, so she may be reluctant to ask for help but anyone who sees her is asked to call 911 and stay with her until first responders arrive.
