The Sûreté du Québec (SQ) is asking for the public’s help in finding an 18-year-old woman who was allegedly abducted by her biological parents Thursday afternoon in Sainte-Thérèse, in the Laurentians.
Cassandra Levasseur was last seen around 3:45 p.m. on Thursday, on Lecompte Street, in Sainte-Thérèse.
According SQ, her biological parents allegedly “forcibly seized her and forced her into a vehicle.” The provincial police force states that it has reason to fear for the young woman’s health and safety, as she “may be vulnerable.”
The vehicle in question is a dark blue 2018 Nissan Rogue with a panoramic sunroof and chrome door handles. It is registered in Quebec with the license plate Z71 YZZ.
Levasseur is 1.65 m (5 ft 5 in) tall, weighs 57 kg (125 lb), has long, dark brown hair, and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing black pants and a blue-green short-sleeved shirt.
Her biological mother is Brigitte Lussier, aged 61, who is 1.62 m tall and weighs 59 kg. She has white skin and grey hair. She was wearing a black and red cap, dark sunglasses, a navy blue coat, black pants and dark boots.
The biological father is Luc Levasseur, aged 63. He is 1.70 m tall, has white skin, grey hair and brown eyes.
Anyone who sees Levasseur, her parents or the vehicle of interest is asked to call 911.
Information can also be transmitted confidentially to the SQ’s Criminal Information Centre, at 1 800 659-4264.
