South Bend, IN – Police have reissued an urgent appeal today as investigators continue searching for a 70-year-old woman who has been missing since mid-November. Authorities say the renewed alert aims to increase community awareness as no new developments have surfaced in recent weeks.
According to the South Bend Police Department, Julia Head was last seen in the 500 block of West Marion Street and was last heard from on November 12, 2025. Police say efforts to locate her have continued, but the lack of recent information prompted officials to share her case again publicly.
Head is described as 5 feet 1 inch tall, weighing about 125 pounds, with long blonde and gray hair and green eyes. Investigators have not released any additional details regarding the circumstances surrounding her disappearance but emphasize that community tips are vital in missing person cases. Officers are urging anyone who may live, work, or travel near the area where she was last seen to revisit security footage from November or recall any unusual activity around that time.
Police added that even small pieces of information could help provide direction in the ongoing search. Family, neighbors, and local advocacy groups have also continued sharing her poster across the South Bend and St. Joseph County area.
Anyone with information about Julia Head’s whereabouts is asked to contact SBPD Detective Bruno Martinsky at 574-235-9204 or call 9-1-1 immediately.
