Missing Vigo woman found alive near Álvaro Cunqueiro hospital

María Milagros C.B., a 53-year-old Vigo woman reported missing after disappearing on Tuesday, was found alive on Friday near Hospital Álvaro Cunqueiro, according to local police and regional media reports. Diario de Pontevedra said police confirmed she had been located near the hospital and admitted there for medical attention. La Voz de Galicia reported she was found three days after leaving home and not returning. Authorities have not released further details about her condition or the circumstances of her disappearance. ### When was she reported missing, and what did police say at that stage? Tuesday, May 12, was the date María Milagros C.B. was last seen before the search began, according to local reports. Diario de Pontevedra said Vigo police were working to locate her after no news of her whereabouts emerged. La Voz de Galicia reported that her daughter filed a missing-person complaint at the Vigo police station after two days without contact. The same report said María Milagros C.B. had left home in a white Renault Captur and did not return. ### How did the search become public? SOS Desaparecidos circulated a public alert on Thursday with identifying details and information about the vehicle, according to Diario de Pontevedra and La Voz de Galicia. The association later issued a second notice saying the woman had been found, Diario de Pontevedra reported. The alert identified the missing woman as María Milagros C.B., aged 53. Local media said the public notice was part of the effort to widen the search after police were notified. ### Where was she found? Hospital Álvaro Cunqueiro in Vigo was the area where she was located, according to police information cited by Diario de Pontevedra. The newspaper said she was found near the hospital and then admitted there. Faro de Vigo reported that a member of the public found her on Friday afternoon in the hospital’s vicinity. The newspaper, citing Local Police sources, said she had spent about two days disoriented in the area before being located. ### What is known about her condition? Hospital Álvaro Cunqueiro is where María Milagros C.B. remains admitted, according to Diario de Pontevedra. The paper said no details had been released about her health status beyond the fact that she was receiving medical care. La Voz de Galicia reported she was found in good condition. Diario de Pontevedra, by contrast, said no further information on her state of health had been made public, leaving only the confirmed fact of her hospitalization. ### What have authorities not said? Vigo police have not publicly explained how María Milagros C.B. came to be near the hospital or what happened between Tuesday and Friday, based on the reports reviewed. No official statement located in public reporting gave further detail on whether her car had been found or whether any criminal circumstances were being considered. Local coverage has attributed nearly all confirmed facts to police sources and the SOS Desaparecidos notices. That leaves the timeline anchored to a few verified points: she disappeared on Tuesday, her family reported her missing, the alert was circulated publicly, and she was found alive on Friday near the hospital. Friday’s discovery appears to have closed the public search, but the official account remains limited to the facts released by police and carried by local media. Any further clarification is likely to come from Vigo police or from updated notices tied to the case, while María Milagros C.B. continues to receive care at Hospital Álvaro Cunqueiro.
