A Dunedin mother-of-three missing since Thursday last week is in Australia, police have confirmed.
A police spokeswoman said today that Alice Tocher flew to Brisbane last week, and police were working with her family and Interpol to establish her present address.
The 31-year-old was last seen dropping her daughter off in the Dunedin suburb of St Kilda.
A group of friends and concerned members of the community gathered at the Pirates Squash Club by Navy Park yesterday morning to conduct a search of the beach and surrounding areas, but found nothing.
Ms Tocher’s family have called on members of the public in Brisbane to be on the lookout for her.
"She has three children, five siblings, parents and a large army of friends who would like her safely back home," a Facebook message said.
