The Spokane Police Department is asking for the public’s help locating a missing vulnerable adult. Stephanie Patenaude (25) left a relative’s home in the 1700 block of east Dalton with no shoes and no coat, so with today’s frigid temperatures, it’s imperative to return her safely home.

This morning, November 20, 2018, just after 5:00am, Spokane Police received a call from a concerned relative of Patenaude’s saying she’d left the house in northeast Spokane wearing no shoes or coat. She was last seen wearing black leggings and a black hooded sweatshirt. She is a white female with shoulder length or longer brown hair, brown eyes, 5’2”, with a medium build (see attached picture). She was on foot and it’s unknown where she might be headed.

If you see Patenaude or know her whereabouts, please call Crime Check at 509-456-2233.
