Renewed Appeal For Help Tracing Paula Elliott

The PSNI have issued a fresh appeal for help in tracing the whereabouts of Paula Elliott, who was last seen on Tuesday, 05 March.

The 52-year-old was last seen on CCTV cameras leaving the Sprucefield Court area of Lisburn at 5.30pm, before making her way to Warren Gardens at around 5.36pm.

From Warren Gardens, she was seen travelling along the Hillsborough Road at 5.39pm, driving a red Citroen C4 car, which was found a short time later parked near the Lagan Towpath.

At the time, Paula was believed to have been wearing a grey/silver coloured Michael Kors puffer-style jacket with black leggings, multi coloured Sketcher trainers and sunglasses, and had her hair tied up with a pink crocodile clip.

Paula is described as having dark coloured hair, approximately 5 feet in height, and would have a medium to large build.

CCTV enquiries have also identified a number of people who were in the vicinity of the Hillsborough Road / Lagan Towpath between 5.50pm and 6.30pm that evening.

Police have said that they are particularly keen to speak to three teenage girls who were walking a Staffordshire bull terrier- type dog in the area, and the female driver of a white Vauxhall Astra, in order to ascertain if they may have seen anyone matching Paula's description.

Please contact officers at Lisburn station on 101, quoting reference number 1840 05/03/24.
