Beloved Blues Community Member Reported Missing Since Monday

Police are calling for public assistance to help locate beloved Melbourne music enthusiast and blues community member Diane Forster who has been missing since Monday. 

In a media statement released yesterday, police say the 64-year-old Newport local communicated on her mobile phone for work reasons on Monday and has not spoken to or been seen since, while her car is also missing. 

Speaking to Herald Sun, Detective Senior Constable Luke Dalli said concerns about Forster's whereabouts were raised after she missed meetings related to her community work with blues music clubs. 

"We are worried," Dalli said. 

"It’s out of character. We want to know where she is — her family is worried for her. We just want to make sure she is OK."

Forster has been an active member of the blues scene for a number of years and has been on the committee of the Way Out West Roots Music Club in Williamstown and the Melbourne Blues Appreciation Society.

Anyone with any information is asked to contact Altona North Police Station on (03) 9392 3111 or call Triple Zero (000).
