Kansas City police are seeking the public’s help in locating a woman who has been missing since 1 a.m. Thursday.

Caitlin Blose, 33, was last seen in the 1100 block of Locust Street. She is believed to frequent the area near Fairview Park, according to officer Alayna Gonzalez, spokesperson for the Kansas City Police Department.

Blose is white, with brown eyes and shoulder length brown hair. Her family worries for her well-being because she has a mental illness, Gonzalez said. If seen, police say not to approach her, but instead contact the missing persons unit at 816-234-5043 or call 911.
