***MISSING PERSON*** - Case #25-24126 JOHANSEN, VINA K 12/24/56 5’2” thin build. Nina was last seen this morning at around 4:00 AM, knocking on neighbors’ doors. A neighbor walked Vina back to her apartment. It isn’t known when she left her apartment after that. Vina is probably wearing the same clothing as in the picture taken in the hallway: glasses, a black sweatshirt, a black shirt, and possibly pushing a pink dog stroller with a dog inside. Vina has only lived here for a month and does not know the area well. She used to live in Portland off of 82nd Ave. Vina is familiar with Trimet and would possibly go back to the 82nd Ave area. If you see Vina, please call 503-629-0111. Thank you.Photos from Hillsboro Police Department's post
