The police are actively searching for a 77-year-old woman named Ivana Sedláčková who went missing from her home in Nová Paka on Tuesday evening. She is known to be in poor health and is currently disoriented, making the search a pressing concern. The police initially classified the search as a regular missing person's case but later elevated it to a status of 'person in danger' given the circumstances that may threaten her life or health.

The police spokesperson highlighted that Sedláčková has undergone recent surgeries and is confused, which raises the urgency of finding her quickly, especially with low temperatures in the area. She was last seen leaving her home around 6 PM and has not used her mobile phone since then. This situation prompted local authorities to appeal for public assistance, including a call via social media platform X to spread the word about her disappearance.

Authorities are concerned about her well-being considering her medical conditions and the recent cold weather, which could exacerbate her situation. As part of the search efforts, they have provided a description of her clothing, stating she may be wearing a blue winter jacket, blue jeans, and gray shoes. Finding her is deemed a priority to ensure her safety and health, highlighting the importance of community involvement in such cases.
