Fears grow as search for missing woman intensifies

CONCERN for the safety of an elderly grandmother who went missing from a Co Wicklow nursing home on St Stephen’s Day has intensified after another major search failed to uncover any clue as to her whereabouts.

Dozens of volunteers assisted gardaí yesterday in a search of the area around Bray for 76-year-old Maura Reynolds.

The great-grandmother, who suffers from Alzheimer’s Disease and cancer of the spine, was reported missing from the Tara nursing home in Putland Road, Bray, last Monday.
