This Image Helped Find (Alive) Woman Missing for 52 Years

A woman who went missing 52 years ago has been found alive and well, according to the BBC.

Sheila Fox disappeared from Coventry in 1972 when she was 16 years old. Recently, the police decided to resume searching for the British woman, sharing a photo of her from the time she disappeared.

Hours after the authorities posted, they were contacted with information that helped police unravel the mystery.

"Every missing person has a story and their families and friends deserve to know what happened to them and hopefully be reunited with them," said Jenna Shaw, a member of the Cold Case Investigations team.

No further details have been released about Sheila's disappearance, but it is known that she is living elsewhere in the country.
