Missing person alert for mother and her one-week-old baby
The 23-year-old and her infant daughter have been missing since last Friday.
GARDAÍ IN ROSCOMMON are seeking the public’s help tracing a 23-year-old woman who has gone missing with her one-week-old daughter.
They have been missing for five days.
In a statement this evening gardaí said that 23-year-old Paige Holland left her home at Westview in Cloonfad, Roscommon on Friday.
Paige is described as being:
- 5’6” in height
- Of medium build
- With blonde shoulder-length hair
- And a strong English accent
Paige is also known as Abbie Goodier or Paige Goodier, according to this evening’s statement.
Daughter
Nevaeh, her daughter, was born last Wednesday.
According to gardaí:
It is not known what clothing Paige was wearing when last seen.
Paige and her daughter are believed to be travelling with her boyfriend Aaron Tighe – also known as Aaron Chadwick or Ian Smith – who is 22.
He is described as being:
- 5’6” tall
- Of medium build
- With short brown/fair hair
He also has a strong English accent.
Gardaí are liaising with child and family agency Tusla in relation to the case.
“Gardaí are not aware of what form of transport is being used and they may be travelling by public transport,” tonight’s statement said.
Gardaí are requesting Paige to make contact with Castlerea Garda Station as soon as possible.
The case does not “at this time” meet the criteria for a Child Rescue Alert according to a Garda spokesperson. Such alerts are issued when there is a reasonable belief that there is a serious risk to the health and welfare of a child.
