Toronto, on – Actress Kim Roberts will guest star as Ms. Patty in Alert: Missing Persons Unit “Ms. Patty” (Episode 205). The episode is scheduled to air April 2 on FOX in the US and CTV in Canada. In this episode, Jason (Scott Caan), Nikki (Dania Ramirez) and the MPU team spring into action when Ms. Patty, a North Philly block captain, is abducted while she is on a neighborhood watch. Co-created by John Eisendrath and superstar Jamie Foxx, Alert: Missing Persons Unit is a procedural drama set in the Philadelphia Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit (MPU). Each episode features a heart-pounding, life-or-death search for a missing person headed by police officers Jason Grant (Scott Caan) and Nikki Batista (Dania Ramirez), who together with the team work to find the missing, abducted, or kidnapped, and help reunite them with their loved ones before it’s too late.

John Eisendrath, Jamie Foxx, Datari Turner, Jon Cowan, Brandon Sonnier, Brandon Margolis, Sean Hennen and Brad Turner are executive producers. “I was born to play Ms Patty. I haven’t had that much fun in a role in a long, long time. Ms. Patty is sassy and smart, and she doesn’t take no mess. I loved every minute I got to live inside this characters’ skin. Danielle Iman did such a fine job with the writing. And being directed by Oz Scott is always such a dream. His creative abilities know no bounds. He’s got such an eye for sweetness in the midst of comedy and drama. I’m also a fan of the show so getting to work with Dania, Ryan, and Scott was a real treat. I love their work! I can’t wait for you to see this episode. I’m sure you’ll love it as much as I do.” – Kim Roberts Kim is an internationally known Canadian Actress of stage & screen with over 200 credits under her name (Paw Patrol, The Changeling, The Handmaids Tale, Schitt’s Creek, The Good Doctor Etc.)

An election-day storm stalled voting in several areas of the province.

Torrential rain and high winds knocked out power to voting places in more than half a dozen locations.

Voters on Haida Gwaii, on Denman, Hornby and Mayne islands, in Kamloops, the Bulkley Valley, Langley and Port Moody had to delay their votes because of power outages.

The lights remain out at Alexander Robinson Elementary school in the riding of Maple Ridge East and election officials are on site to direct voters to other polling stations.
