Police appeal for help in identifying elderly woman at Nambour

Sunshine Coast police are appealing for public assistance to help identify an elderly woman (pictured above) who was located outside the Nambour Hospital at around 12.20pm yesterday (September 6).

The woman was found in a distressed state and is unable to communicate with staff. She appears to be between 80-90 years of age with a slim build and greying hair and was wearing a long brown coat and slippers.

Preliminary information suggests an unknown man (pictured below) walked with the woman to a chair outside the hospital, before immediately leaving the area.

The man is described as around 60-years-old, Caucasian in appearance with a medium build and wearing blue jeans, blue shirt, brown cap and black boots.

Anyone who knows either of these people are urged to contact Police immediately.
