RCMP in Mayerthorpe, Alberta, hope sharp-eyed Metro Vancouver residents can help them find a missing woman.

Mayerthorpe Mounties say 31 year old Franky Daylene Potts left her family in Alberta in August, with plans to head west, and was confirmed to be in Langley three weeks ago.

The 5'1" and 115 pound woman with burn and skin graft scars on both arms, was reported missing October 16th and is believed to be in the Langley or Surrey areas.

Police say there is concern for her safety because she hasn't contacted family, and investigators would like to speak to anyone who may have seen her.
