Police in Helsinki report a middle-aged woman has gone missing from the Tapaninkylä district. Authorities say she was last seen Tuesday evening around 7 PM.
The missing woman has dark, medium-length hair and stands approximately 155 cm tall. That's about 5 feet 1 inch for international readers.
She may be wearing an old coat and dark sweatpants according to police descriptions. Tapaninkylä is a residential neighborhood in northeastern Helsinki with both apartment buildings and single-family homes.
Police urge anyone with information to call the emergency number 112 immediately. The 112 emergency line works across all Nordic countries and connects directly to police, ambulance, and fire services.
Missing person cases typically trigger rapid response in Finland, where police mobilize quickly for search operations. The timing of her disappearance during evening hours adds urgency to the search efforts.
