Mother of Two Vanishes After Work Shift in Urals

In Pervouralsk, a search is underway for missing Tatiana Loshkareva. On January 1, she went to work at the store «Krasnoye i Beloye» (Red and White) and disappeared. At home, the 41-year-old woman is awaited by her husband and two sons.

The missing woman«s husband, Dmitry, told E1.RU that Tatiana went to work that day without any money.

«On December 31, my wife worked, came home, we celebrated New Year»s, she didn«t even drink — just symbolically had half a glass of champagne, because she had work again on the first. We even discussed that we»d sit together the next evening, as she had two days off after. On the morning of January 1, she got up, asked our son for money, he gave her 30 rubles (less than $1 at current rates) for the bus, she left for work. And that«s it — she didn»t return.«

«In almost three weeks, she made contact only once. On January 7, I managed to reach her by phone. She was in an inadequate state, barely able to speak. I asked her to come back, she said: »I«m afraid to go home, I»m with good people.« I offered to send her money for a taxi so she could go to her mother»s. She mumbled something and hung up. And since then, she hasn«t answered the phone. I»ve called her, texted her, her parents, our children — to no avail,« Dmitry noted.

According to her husband, Tatiana had left home before, but usually her absences lasted no more than a week. That«s why the man didn»t immediately file a report with the police.

«In the last four years, my wife has had problems with alcohol. We tried to get her treated twice. Because of this, she hasn»t worked anywhere for more than a month — she«s constantly fired for absenteeism. I»m afraid to imagine where she might be. The last time, I found her in an apartment in a dormitory with alcoholics,« the missing woman»s husband said.

The husband added that he has already checked all the places where Tatiana might possibly be. He also stopped by her workplace. Colleagues confirmed that Tatiana worked her shift on January 1 and left in the evening. Since January 19, the woman«s phone has been turned off.

Police specified that on the day she went missing, Tatiana was wearing a black down jacket, black pants, black boots, a gray hat, and a gray scarf.
