Missing Melb Woman Dakota Lee Nagel Has Been Found Safe After She Vanished For A Week

Police say missing Melbourne woman Dakota Lee Nagel has been found safe after she disappeared for a week. Friends and family of Nagel took to social media to reveal their relief that she had been found late on Sunday evening. “THANKYOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE SHARES AND MESSAGES DAKOTA HAS BEEN FOUND,” Nagel’s aunt wrote in a Facebook post. The circumstances of her disappearance were not elaborated on and police didn’t provide any further information. ICYMI, the 24-year-old woman was last seen on Sunday, January 8 before she was reported as missing for a week. She and some friends left her Doncaster home at about 2am on Sunday and visited several licensed venues in the Prahan and South Yarra area. During the latter part of Sunday afternoon Nagel parted company with her friends. She had not been in touch with family or friends since that time, a Victoria Police spokesperson said in a statement. Nagel’s Mum reported her daughter missing on Wednesday, January 11. Police said her disappearance was out of character, and investigators and her family were concerned for her welfare. “She has a wide circle of friends and often attends licensed venues in the Prahran area,” the police spokesperson said. “At times friends will not hear from her for a day or two, however it is unusual for her not to have contacted anyone for this length of time.” Dakota Lee Nagel’s family urgently pleaded for the public’s assistance in finding her, and reiterated that her disappearance was out of character. “Our family are worried sick and her puggy fur-babies are distraught. She would not have left them this long,” a family member wrote on Facebook. “Her fur-kids are her life and mean as much to her as ours do. She’s also about to become an aunty and is so excited, so there’s no way she would miss it. “This is out of character for her to not contact someone.” Police said Nagel was believed to have been in the Prahan, South Yarra, CBD and Southbank areas since Sunday.
