On March 28, 2023, at approximately 8:00 am, Thompson RCMP received a report of human remains located in the dog park off Baffin Crescent in Thompson, Manitoba. Officers responded and determined the remains were those of a 15-year-old female who had been reported missing the night before. It is believed she had been outside for a period of time, with the temperature going as low as -24C.

On March 27, 2023, at approximately 11:50 pm, the female had been reported missing after leaving the Thompson Recreational Community Centre grounds, where she had been with friends. She was last seen in the near vicinity of where her remains were located. All her friends returned home, but the female had not, prompting police to be called.

Extensive patrols and inquiries attempting to locate the female were made throughout the night.

An autopsy will be conducted. Thompson RCMP continue to investigate.
