No one has talked to or seen 69-year-old Carolyn Kay Riggins since that night on July 11.
Fort Worth police appealed for help to locate Riggins last week on social media, but she remained missing.
A family member said Friday that Fort Worth police advised the family that Riggins’ car was believed to be on Interstate 35 in Denton County based on a hit from her license plate.
But Gale Williams of Garland, one of Riggins’ daughters, said Friday her mother’s 2002 Lincoln Towncar had not been located and her mother remained missing.
“She had a stroke in 2009 and she lost her sense of direction,” Williams said Friday. “But she always called when she got lost and we would give her directions on how to get home.”
On July 11, Riggins left her cell phone at her Fort Worth home.
Family members saw Riggins on July 11 before she went to Watauga Road Bingo that night. The bingo hall is at 6535 Watauga Road in Watauga.
“That was her hobby,” Williams said referring to playing bingo “She would go there by herself, but she loves talking to people.”
Watauga Road Bingo employees told some of Riggins’ family members that they remembered seeing her on the nights of July 10 and July 11.
“They said she had won on Friday (July 10), and won twice on that Saturday night (July 11),” Williams said.
On Friday, family members did not have any leads on Riggins’ whereabouts..
Riggins lives in northeast Fort Worth, and she has a daughter and grandchildren living within five miles of her.
Fort Worth police said Riggins’ last known location was 6901 N. Beach St. in Fort Worth. She was driving a 2002 Lincoln Continental with Texas license plate CGB-1453.
She is 5-foot-9, about 200 pounds with black hair and brown eyes.
Riggins has been entered into the TCIC/NCIC (Texas Crime Information Center/National Crime Information Center) database for a missing person report.
Anyone with information should call Fort Worth police at 817-392-4222.
