Northern Territory Police hold concerns for the welfare of missing 76-year-old Andrea Stranger.

Duty Superintendent Rob Burgoyne said Andrea was reported missing after she failed to attend a family event last night, and another today.

“Police hold significant concerns for Andrea’s welfare as she suffers from dementia,” he said.

“She was last seen by her family on Tuesday 20 December, however a neighbour may have seen her later in the week on either Thursday or Friday.”

Andrea is described as being of Asian appearance, 165cm tall, with a hunched back.

Police ask anyone who sees Andrea, or anyone with any information, to contact police on 131 444.
