Malcia Blyden Brinson, 47, was last seen by her family in Gwinnett County on February 22, 2017 driving away from a Duluth gas station. Family members then had no contact with her since that date which they called uncharacteristic.
Police had recovered her abandoned vehicle in Chattanooga, Tennessee and had reason to believe that she was still in that area. Family members were concerned that Brinson may be in the early stages of an unknown mental health disorder.
And Gwinnett County Police Department on March 2, 2017 confirmed to this news site last night that Brinson was found.
“It was not an abduction and she is fine. Reach out to Chattanooga Police Department for additional information,” said Public Information Officer of the Gwinnett County Police Department, Corporal Deon Washington.
The Chattanooga Police Department did not immediately respond to our queries via email.

Malcia Blyden Brinson’s case being investigated- Atlanta Police
Police in Atlanta, USA have confirmed with this news site that they are investigating a missing person’s case involving Malcia Blyden Brinson.
Brinson, 43, reportedly grew up in the Virgin Islands (lower Estate) and attended the then BVI High School.
It is not exactly clear since when Ms Brinson has been missing but a missing person’s alert was shared on social media, including Whatsapp and Facebook by Glynis Varlack Allgood, who claimed to be the woman’s cousin. Ms Allgood did not state when exactly Ms Brinson was reported missing and when she was last seen but her Facebook post about the missing report was done on February 24, 2017.
Efforts to reach Ms Allgood were unsuccessful.
“We are investigating a missing person’s case involving Malcia Brinson. It is being worked by one of our detectives,” Corporal Deon Washington, Public Information Officer of the Gwinnett County Police Department in Atlanta told Virgin Islands News Online today, February 28, 2017.
However, Corporal Washington indicated that the “initial incident report has not been approved” and we were advised to check back with the Gwinett County Police Department for a copy of the report.
A check on Ms Brinson’s Facebook page has shown she was last active on her page on February 5, 2017 at 8:51 PM when, coincidentally, she shared an article titled ‘Three Year Old Has Been Abducted By Psychotic Woman’.
Further checks on her Facebook page further revealed that Ms Brinson frequently shared articles about missing persons.

VI woman Malcia Blyden Brinson reported missing in Atlanta
A woman from the Virgin Islands, who has been living in Atlanta, USA has been reported missing.
Malcia Blyden Brinson, 43, reportedly grew up in the Virgin Islands (lower Estate) and attended the then BVI High School.
The missing report has been shared on social media, including Whatsapp and Facebook by Glynis Varlack Allgood, who claimed to be the woman’s cousin.
Ms Allgood did not state when exactly Ms Brinson was reported missing and when she was last seen but her Facebook post about the missing report was done last night, February 24, 2017.
She then followed up with a live broadcast this morning pleading with persons to share the information about the missing person with everyone and that they make available any information to the Gwinett County Police in Atlanta.
Word of the missing woman is also being shared locally, with many persons commenting that they are familiar with the woman, as they would have attended school together in the VI or recalled when she lived in Lower Estate.
A check on the Gwinett County Police website, however, did not contain any information about a missing person's report for Ms Brinson and when a request was made for information we were advised by the Gwinett County Police Information Office that they "will check and advise."
