Port Huron, MI. - U.S. Customs and
Border Protection officers at the Marine City Ferry Crossing assisted a Marine
City resident who had been missing for two days, since Saturday, June 23.
On Monday morning, June 25, a woman
entered the Marine City office and was unaware of her name and whereabouts. CBP
officers gave the woman food and water and contacted the Marine City Police
Department.
Marine City Police were dispatched and
worked with CBP to identify the woman and locate her address. CBP officers
later discovered that she had been reported missing for two days and had not
taken her prescribed medication.
“The dedication of our officers in
helping this woman shows that, with vigilance and service, we are a valuable
asset and available to assist in our local community,” said David Dusellier,
CBP Port Huron Port Director.
Emergency Medical Services arrived at
the port of entry and transported the woman to a local hospital for treatment.
