She was hospitalized in critical condition.
As police gathered at the home where Foster was located, some area residents received a notification to shelter in place, the Daily Courier reported.Foster was spotted Tuesday morning walking a dog in the Grants Pass area, according to a Grants Pass Police Department Facebook post.
