The brown-eyed woman was last seen in Warwick's Apponaug area on May 16.

Investigators suspect Lester's dog to have been with her at the time of her disappearance, according to WPRI 12 News.

However, her dog was reportedly discovered alone on a road just days after she went missing.

And now, following the search of a home Lester would often visit, detectives have found the woman's red pickup truck parked behind Kent Hospital, according to the report.

Police told ABC6 that no one was admitted into the hospital under Lester's name.

And Lester's truck was found within 24 hours of her home getting searched.

'Articles of interest'

This week, "articles of interest" were found by investigators - however, it has not been revealed what the clues are or how they are related to the case.

The clues were discovered after a search unfolded in a wooded area alongside where Lester's truck was parked, investigators confirmed, as per WPRI.

Four Seasons Investigations' Stan Vogt, who was hired by Lester's family to look into the case, gave some insight into the "articles of interest."

Vogt told the news outlet: "They appear to be related to her disappearance.

"They are consistent with a lot of other things we have been hearing throughout this investigation.”

The private investigator also noted it's "tough to say" whether Lester is still alive.

In regards to Lester's dog being found with her, Vogt said it's "not encouraging" as the two were reportedly inseparable.

Anyone with information on Lester's whereabouts is urged to contact the Warwick Police Department at 401-468-4200.

Lester is a white woman with a slim to medium build and 5 feet 7 inches tall, according to police.

Investigators said Lester could also be spotted wearing a hairpiece as she suffers from alopecia and often wore wigs, according to an ABC6.

Lester's family is offering anyone with information relevant to the case a $20,000 reward.
