{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Police in Maine spearheading the search for a 29-year-old woman who vanished outside a McDonald’s in New York City’s Times Square earlier this week have released new photos of her Friday in hopes the public can help track her down.
Christine Hammontree, a resident of Plymouth, Maine, was last seen on surveillance footage in the tourist-heavy area around 2 a.m. Monday, the Falmouth Police Department said. She was getting into a vehicle with a group of people who have not been identified.
"We are asking for the continued support of the public in any information that can help lead to the whereabouts of Christine Hammontree," Falmouth Police wrote in a Facebook post.
