(CNN/WFLA) – Police in New Canaan, Connecticut are searching for leads into the disappearance of a mother of five.
No one has seen or heard from 50-year-old Jennifer Dulos since Friday, when she dropped her kids off at school.
A Silver Alert was issued for Dulos after her vehicle was found abandoned near a park.
Dulos is described as “very slender” and 5-foot-7, “with a soft voice,” dark brown eyes, and shoulder-length brown hair.
“Those who know Jennifer know her to be a devoted mother; an extremely thoughtful, reliable, and organized woman; and attest that she would never, ever, disappear when she is responsible for the lives of five loving and energetic children,” her family said in a statement.
NBC News reports Dulos has filed for divorce from her husband, Fotis in June 2017. The couple has been in a 2-year divorce and custody battle and more than 400 filings have been entered to settle matters of child custody, visitation, alimony and child support. Both have filed for emergency orders for sole custody of the children, but a judge denied their motions.
The New Canaan Police Department and Connecticut State Police are investigating.
