PARIS (AP) — French police are looking for Benin track and field athlete Odile Ahouanwanou, who has been missing since last week.

French authorities launched an appeal for witnesses on Tuesday to find the 33-year-old athlete, who they said has not been seen since Sept. 10 near the city of Rouen. Ahouanwanou trains in France.

Police said she dropped off her kid at the childminder’s in the morning and didn’t come back to pick her up. “Her last location is Neufchâtel-en-Bray. She drives around in a Volkswagen Polo,” police said.

Ahouanwanou finished eighth in the heptathlon at the 2019 world championships.
