Missing woman found safe at motel

JSO: Elizabeth Dube located after person spots her car, calls police

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – A woman who had last been seen driving from Jacksonville to St. Augustine on Monday has been located safe, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office announced early Friday evening.

Elizabeth Dube, 45, was found just hours after police asked for the public's help finding her.

Dube left Jacksonville at 6:30 a.m. Monday, headed to St. Augustine and never arrived at her destination, police said. She had last been seen driving a red, two-door Mazda Miata with Florida tag W4YNP displayed.

According to a police report, Dubes' roommate reported her missing on Wednesday. He told police he saw her leave their San Marco home Monday morning to go to St. Augustine for manager training.  Police contacted Dube’s supervisor, who said he had not seen Dube all week. 

Just before 6 p.m. Friday, officers said they found Dube safe after a person recognized her vehicle and called police.

Her roommate told News4Jax she was at a Super 8 motel off State Road 16.
