Family and friends search for missing Warwick woman
"We just wanted to get out and do something instead of sitting at home worrying about it," family friend Kim Kolodzi told ABC6 News.
WARWICK, R.I. (WLNE) — Friends and family of Charlotte Lester, who disappeared nearly two weeks ago, held a search party on Sunday in hopes of finding answers.
Friends said Lester, 44, was last seen on May 16th in the area of Post Road. Lester is described as a white woman with a slim to medium build. She’s 5 feet 7 inches tall with brown eyes.
“We just wanted to get out and do something instead of sitting at home worrying about it,” family friend Kim Kolodzi told ABC6 News.
Kolodzi told ABC6 News Lester has alopecia and often wears wigs and baseball caps.
“If you see a random hat or a wig in a strange area…if you could snap a photo of it and let authorities know,” Kolodzi plead.
A $15,000 reward is being offered for the arrest and conviction of anyone responsible for her disappearance or her safe return.
A 2006 Red Toyota Tacoma pickup truck, believed to be the one belonging to Lester, was found this on May 23rd outside of Kent County Hospital.
ABC6 News did confirm with the hospital that there are currently no patients admitted under the name Charlotte Lester.
In connection to the investigation, authorities executed a court-authorized search warrant at a Staples Avenue home earlier this week. Investigators said this is an address Lester was known to frequent.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Warwick Police Department.
