Tara Jade Sculptor was 34 when she disappeared in late May 2019 after leaving Ottawa. She was last seen by her mother on Carling Avenue on May 30, 2019, and on May 31 she was observed at an Ottawa bus terminal buying a ticket for a northbound bus to North Bay. It is believed she boarded; the journey may have reached Petawawa, but it is uncertain whether she ever arrived in North Bay or disembarked somewhere between Petawawa and North Bay.

At the time she went missing Tara was described as a white female, five feet six inches tall, about 180 pounds, with shoulder-length auburn hair and green or blue eyes, and noticeable scarring on her face and body. She was wearing a long black leather coat, black jeans, black shoes and carrying a pink backpack when last seen. The Ottawa Police Service opened a missing person investigation that later involved the North Bay Police Service, and there have been unconfirmed possible sightings in the North Bay area.

Nothing definite has been reported about her whereabouts since she was reported missing on June 6, 2019. If anyone has information about Tara’s movements between Ottawa and North Bay or saw someone matching her description, please come forward to the authorities.
