UPDATE: Missing Rockville Woman Found Dead, Police Say

ROCKVILLE, MD —Nyanko Udo, a 45-year-old woman reported missing in Rockville, has been found dead.

Montgomery County Police say they received a call that Udo had last been seen sometime between 12:40 and 1:15 p.m. on the 4000 block of Brad Courton Jan. 6. She had been reported missing before, and police say she had been known to hide from caretakers and people looking for her.

The night after Udo went missing, temperatures dropped and the area got several inches of snow, police said. When she was last seen, Udo was not wearing shoes and had only a t-shirt and pajama pants on.

On Sunday, police received a call about a "person down" on the the 14200 block of Brad Drive.
When they arrived, police determined that the body was Udo.

The area where she was found had already been searched by the Managed Search Operations Team (MSOT), bloodhounds, and fourth district police officers during a multi-day search — police say it was an open area and it is not possible that she was there at the time of the search.

MCP said it is possible that Udo tried to return home after seeing the officers. A news release said that there is no foul play suspected in Udo's death, and a medical examiner will determine the cause.
