Police north of Toronto have charged a suspect with kidnapping as the search continues for a woman who investigators say went missing under “suspicious circumstances.”
Ying Zhang was last seen at approximately 10:40 a.m. on July 25 near Woodbine Avenue and Steelcase Road in Markham, York Regional Police (YRP) said.
They said that she was wearing blue scrubs and a jade bracelet on her left hand at the time and hasn’t been seen since.
Const. James Dickson told CTV News Toronto that police aren’t sure if Zhang is alive or deceased.
“There is indication from the scene that she was a victim of an assault and we are concerned for her wellbeing as she has not received medical treatment. There could be serious consequences,” he said.
The 57-year-old Markham resident is described by police as five-foot-seven with a medium build and straight, shoulder-length, black and grey hair.
