Florida Police Searching for Woman Missing Since Wednesday

December 25, 2023

LAKE WORTH BEACH, FL – The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office is seeking public assistance to locate Rozimar Melquiades Lopes, who was last seen on December 20 in Lake Worth Beach.

Lopes was reported to be wearing a gray hoodie, blue jeans, and sandals at the time of her disappearance. It is crucial to note that she has been diagnosed with bipolar disorder and paranoid schizophrenia and is currently without her medications. Additionally, Lopes communicates solely in Portuguese, potentially limiting her ability to seek help effectively.

The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office urges anyone with information about Rozimar Melquiades Lopes’ whereabouts to contact them immediately.
