In the wake of federal raids at the homes and City Hall offices of embattled Baltimore Mayor Catherine Pugh, one report asserted she has skipped town.

The first-term Democratic mayor slipped out of sight April 1, citing deteriorating health, just as Gov. Larry Hogan called on the state prosecutor to investigate allegations of “self-dealing.” She has not been heard from since.

But after the Thursday morning raids, Hogan joined calls for her immediate resignation.

Meanwhile, CBS affiliate WJZ reported Pugh was at her home when the raid began — and has since left the state.

According to the Associated Press, Pugh’s main spokesman, James Bentley, said he had not spoken with her and does not even know where she is.
