GASTONIA, N.C.,None — Gastonia police are redistributing missing person fliers in the case of a woman who was last seen in 2008.

Jennifer Ramsey Rivkin, of Kings Mountain, has been missing since May 4, 2008. A vehicle she was driving was found two days later at a bar and grill on West Franklin Boulevard in Gastonia, and her purse was still inside the vehicle, police said.

Investigators said Rivkin was last heard from in a cell phone message she left for a friend on May 4, 2008.
