Richardson police turn missing woman's case over to DPD
Richardson police are turning over the case of a 40-year-old woman who disappeared last week after cleaning a home in Rowlett to the Dallas Police Department's missing persons unit.
Richardson police Sgt. Kevin Perlich said police believe possible foul play in Shirley Marie Geanes' disappearance may have taken place in Dallas.
Geanes went missing Wednesday en route to a Coppell home. "She never showed up to the other home," said Capt. George Robertson of the Richardson Police Department.
Geanes' husband reported her missing Thursday after searching for her Wednesday afternoon and evening, Robertson said.
A Dallas County constable located Geanes' vehicle Thursday near Interstate 30 and Samuell Boulevard in Dallas.
"Due to the condition that the vehicle was found in, we feel (Geanes) could be in danger," Robertson said, adding that he would not comment on the vehicle's condition.
Several of Geanes' neighbors on North Cottonwood Drive said they didn't know her well.
Marlene Phipps, 67, said Geanes' husband, Sam, used to help her husband with his wheelchair. "They seemed nice and friendly. I just feel bad. They need to find her one way or another," Phipps said.
Police described Shirley Geanes as 5 feet, 4 inches tall, with black hair and brown eyes.
Anyone with information should call the Richardson Police Department at (972) 744-4800.
