A missing Massachusetts woman’s remains have been found in a New Hampshire lake, according to local authorities.

Forty-one-year-old Sinead Lyons, residing in Lowell but originally from Ireland, had not been seen since March 12, when she was spotted walking her dog along Ossipee Lake, according to a New Hampshire Fish and Game spokesman.

New Hampshire State Police said in a statement Friday that tips from the public had led search teams to her remains.

Two boats and divers recovered them Friday afternoon, Capt. Mike Eastman said in a statement.
