Thurston County Sheriff's Office asks public for help to locate missing woman 

The Thurston County Sheriff’s Office is asking for the public’s assistance in locating a woman who has not been seen in weeks.

Authorities said Michelle A. Francis parked her vehicle at the Thurston County Courthouse on July 23, but did not return to retrieve it. Since that time, friends and family have not been able to reach her. 

Investigators reported that Francis was last seen on Aug. 4 at Olympia Union Gospel Mission at 413 Franklin St. NE. She may still spend time in the area, the sheriff's office said.

Anyone with information about Francis is asked to contact sheriff's office detectives by email and include the reference number 25-003409. To provide information anonymously, contact authorities via the P3 Tips app.
