Police have serious concerns for a 69-year-old reported missing from a residential complex on Auckland’s North Shore.

Maree Jennins was reported missing from the complex on Roseberry Rd in Birkenhead on Tuesday evening.

The last confirmed sighting of Jennins was on the afternoon of Friday, July 24.

She had no form of transport, but had been known to use taxis in the past, police said.

“We have made enquiries with taxi firms throughout the day, we know that Maree has recently avoided using her name when she has made taxi bookings. She may have caught a taxi from the Roseberry Rd or wider Birkenhead area,” Detective Senior Sergeant Mike Williams, from Waitematā East CIB, said.

“Maree’s family and police hold serious concerns for her following recent comments she has made. She stayed in a north Auckland motel recently and it is possible she has done the same again, but we continue to be worried for her wellbeing.”

Police want any taxi drivers that might have picked her up on Friday afternoon to contact them. They have asked accommodation providers with information to get in touch as well.

Residents in the wider Birkenhead area that may have seen her should also contact police. Anyone who sees her should call 111 immediately.

Anyone with information on her whereabouts can also call 105, using the reference number 260728/7173.
