Police and family hold concerns for Dawn’s welfare due to her age and a medical condition that may cause confusion.

On Wednesday, a police dog squad, State Emergency Service (SES) crews and police divers set up a coordinated field search along Compton Road at Slacks Creek, close to where Ms Wells was last sighted.

Investigators have been able to confirm that Dawn, who is a frequent user of public transport, has not used her GoCard since 9 December, there is no record of her attending any nearby hospitals, and that all reported sightings of Dawn from Harvey Bay down to Melbourne have been thoroughly investigated and subsequently unsubstantiated.

Dawn is described as Caucasian, around 160cm tall, with a slim petite build, shoulder-length brown curly hair, hazel eyes and walks with a distinctive gate.

She was last seen wearing a black T-shirt with the words “Justice Compassion Love” on the front, light blue jeans shorts, a khaki brown bum-bag, brown runners and may be wearing a black cap.

Police are appealing to Dawn, or anyone with information regarding her whereabouts, to come forward.
