PORT ANGELES — The family of a 26-year-old developmentally disabled woman and the Port Angeles Police Department are looking for anyone who has seen her or knows where she is.
Jennifer Pimentel was last seen at Dairy Queen at 128 E. Railroad Ave. in Port Angeles at about 12.30 p.m. Monday, said Brian Smith, Port Angeles deputy police chief.
She is 5-foot, 9-inches tall and weighs 126 pounds. She has brown hair and brown eyes.
She had been dropped off by friends at The Gateway transit center and had purchased a Dungeness Bus Lines ticket to SeaTac.
“She didn’t use it,” Smith said.
“We need to hear from anyone who has seen or been with Pimentel immediately,” he said. The Police Department’s phone number is 360-452-4545.
Police are following leads in the investigation, but need more information.
Pimentel was reported to be in company of a person whom police believe to have been staying at the Street Outreach Shelter. 520 E. First St.
A cell phone used by the missing woman has been shut off, said her stepmother, Tammy Pimentel.
“She’s not calling, and not getting any calls,” Tammy Pimentel said, adding that she has the mental capacity of a 12-year-old, and that her family is concerned about her safety.
She has made the trip from Port Angeles to her new home in SeaTac several times in the last year without incident, her stepmother said.
Jennifer Pimentel’s disappearance has been entered into National Crime Information Center computer system, which will notify any law enforcement who enters her name into the system of her status, Smith said.
