Jones was last seen a couple days earlier on Aug. 31 in Kingston, N.S.

Jones is described by police as five feet four inches with a slim build. She has dirty blond/brown, greying, shoulder-length hair and hazel eyes.

She may have been wearing a black T-shirt with ties on the shoulders, a black and floral below-knee-length skirt, and sunglasses with mirrored lenses when she was last seen.

On Sept. 4, officers found Jones’ vehicle — a silver 2009 Volkswagen Passat. It was found abandoned in Greenwood.

“Through the course of the investigation, officers have deemed Jones’ disappearance suspicious,” police said.

Anyone with information is asked to contact police.
