UPDATE: Prince Rupert RCMP have confirmed that Lexus Hill has been located safely.
ORIGINAL
The Prince Rupert RCMP are asking for public support in locating an 18-year-old woman named Lexus Hill.
Lexus was last in contact with her family on the evening of Sept. 9.
She is described as an Indigenous female, 5’3" (160 cm) weighing about 100 lbs (45 kg). She has shoulder-length blonde hair and hazel eyes.
She was last seen wearing a purple shirt and black jeans.
RCMP officer Brody Hemrich explained there is no prescribed period for a missing person report.
"If you feel as if someone's well-being is at risk, the police will investigate it and do their best to ensure that person is safe. The '24 hour rule' is a dramatization of television and not in line with RCMP policy," he said.
If you have any information on Lexus's whereabouts, please call the Prince Rupert RCMP at 250-624-2136, in case of an emergency call 9-1-1.
