Woman missing after early morning carjacking in Battlefords: Sask. RCMP
Saskatchewan RCMP are asking for help finding a 33-year-old Battlefords woman who may have been abducted in an early morning carjacking.
RCMP said in a news release that Leanna Frenchman may have been taken at gunpoint after a man approached her and another woman as they sat in a car.
"The adult male threatened the vehicle occupants and stole the vehicle. One of the females, 33-year-old Leanna Frenchman, was reportedly still inside," RCMP said in the release.
"Based on initial investigation and the report made, Battlefords RCMP has not located Leanna and therefore are considering her missing. Investigators are concerned for her wellbeing and continue to actively investigate."
The other woman was not hurt. RCMP say they do not believe Frenchman knew the suspect.
RCMP are on the lookout for a red 2007 Pontiac Grand Prix with Saskatchewan license plate 186 NSA.
