KINGSTON, Jamaica — Law enforcement authorities in Jamaica are turning to the general public for help in locating a 40-year-old pharmacy technician who has been missing for more than a week. Kedecia McLeod, a resident of the Allison district in Bombay, Manchester, has not been heard from or seen since Tuesday, June 9, according to an official police release.
Investigators from the Mandeville Police Department have outlined the known details of McLeod’s disappearance. The missing woman is officially described as having a brown complexion and a slim physical build. The final confirmed sighting of McLeod took place at approximately 1:11 p.m. at her workplace, where she was spotted wearing a white blouse, a light grey sweater, brown trousers and a pair of white slip-on shoes.
Since that last sighting, police have confirmed that every attempt to reach McLeod via phone and other contact channels has been unsuccessful. Local law enforcement has exhausted initial internal search efforts, prompting the public appeal to expand the search net across the island.
Authorities are urging anyone who has seen McLeod in recent days, or who holds any information that could help police pinpoint her current location, to come forward immediately with details. Tips can be submitted directly to the Mandeville Police Station by calling 876-961-5538, to the national police emergency hotline at 119, or to any local police detachment closest to the tipster. All information provided will be treated confidentially, police added.
