SOUTH FORK, Colo. – A Colorado woman in need of medication has not been seen since Jan. 2, and the South Fork Police Department is hoping the public can help find her.

Police said Mizell was wearing a black, one-piece pant jump suit and no coat at the time of her disappearance. She was traveling in her blue 2010, 4-door Ford Focus, bearing license plate NMK-6502. It’s unknown if the plates were from the state of Colorado.

Mizell has high cheek bones and scars on her chin and neck, her ears are pierced and she was two tattoos; a hummingbird near her stomach and a butterfly on her ankle, according to a missing person bulletin. She is 5-feet, 3-inches tall and has dark brown hair and light blue eyes, and weighs 140 lbs.
