‘I was told ... that she is safe’
Woodruff

The 30-year-old Durango woman missing since March 30 has been found.

As of 10 p.m. Thursday, Durango Police Sgt. Don Cummings had no further information.

“I was told that she was found and that she is safe,” Cummings said. “I don’t have any further information.”

Chelsea Ruby Woodruff, who left her job at Albertson’s supermarket March 30, was given a ride at about 5:30 p.m. the same day while walking along U.S. Highway 160 west of Durango.

The motorist who picked her up, dropped her off in Hesperus. She told him she was headed for Dolores to meet someone, Durango Police Detective Joe Farmer said. Woodruff didn’t say who she was going to meet, the motorist reported.
