“I can’t provide specifics on the location of the residence mentioned in the release, as that is evidentiary information,” said Derek Rogers, regional media relations coordinator with OPP West Region, through email.

“Our investigators are hopeful that Deanna is still alive, but she has not been in contact with anyone since she was reported missing.”

The 34-year-old was reported missing by her family in February 2022, a year after her last known sighting in London. The reason for the delay is not clear, and police have declined to provide an explanation as the investigation is ongoing.

Timms, who has ties to the Watford area, is described by police as a white female, five-feet-four-inches tall and 120 pounds with brown hair and blue eyes.

“Police remain concerned for her well-being and are asking for the public’s help in locating her,” a police media release reads.

Anyone with any possible information about Timms’ whereabouts is asked to contact 1-844-677-9402, or email OPP.TIMMS.Missing.Person@opp.ca.
