Original story:

CHILLIWACK — A woman who apparently left Chilliwack General Hospital during the B.C. Day long weekend has been reported missing by her family members.

According to the text of a widely circulated social media post, Teresa Miles was last heard from by her family members on Friday, August 1 at 11 p.m. Miles was not feeling well and presented to Chilliwack General Hospital Friday night. She reportedly left CGH in the early morning hours the next day.

The social media post states Miles’ phone connected in Hope, B.C., at 6:34 a.m. Saturday morning. Later in the day, her phone connected in Copper Mines, between Princeton and Manning Park, at approximately 4 p.m. with a 10-km radius. Miles was believed to be driving consistently in that area and reportedly drives a black Hyundai Santa Fe SUV.

“It is unusual for Teresa to not return after a few hours or contact her family,” the social media post states.

Miles is described as a 50-year-old Caucasian female, 5’5″ tall, 160 pounds, with brown/grey hair and brown eyes. The social media post states Miles has a tattoo of three small birds on her left collarbone.

The woman’s daughter, Ariana Alissa, wrote on Facebook Monday morning, August 4, that Miles has not been located.

“So far there is still no signs of her. Police have pinged her phone again at Copper Mountain, and based on her phone records it looks like it may have been turned off last night. Search parties are resuming in the area today,” Alissa wrote on Facebook.

The Princeton RCMP file number is 2025-32280. Their detachment phone number is 250-295-6911.
