A Winnipeg woman told her friends in a group chat that she had hit a tree with her vehicle in southeastern Manitoba before they lost contact with her earlier this week, police say.
Whitemouth RCMP received a missing report for Brittany Dawn Storey, 29, shortly after 4 p.m. Thursday, according to a Saturday news release.
The Winnipeg woman was near Rennie — a small community just west of Whiteshell Provincial Park — in a group chat with friends when she said that she struck a tree and the call was lost, police said.
Repeated attempts to reach Storey over the phone after that call were unsuccessful.
Storey has not shown up to her workplace, returned to her home in Winnipeg or been active on social media since that call, police say.
Police have patrolled the area between Rennie and Winnipeg but found no sign of Storey or her vehicle, which is a white 2016 Dodge Journey with the Manitoba licence plate LFR 884.
She is described as six feet tall and 130 pounds, with blond hair and blue eyes.
Anyone with information on her whereabouts is asked to call Whitemouth RCMP at 204-348-2935, or to submit an anonymous tip to Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-8477 or online.
