THE BATTLEFORDS — Police are now releasing new photos and video of their search of the rivers in the Ashley Morin investigation.
The search for missing woman Ashley Morin is resulting in an increased police presence this week on the rivers in the Battlefords area. Video of the search can be seen at this link:
Officers with Saskatchewan RCMP’s Underwater Recovery Team (URT), Historical Case Unit (HCU) and Battlefords RCMP Detachment, along with Saskatchewan RCMP Search and Rescue (SAR), will be conducting a search of areas of the river, and riverbanks, throughout the week as part of the investigation into the disappearance of Ashley Morin.
Ashley, who was 31 years old when she disappeared, was last seen mid-July 2018 in North Battleford, and was last in contact with family on July 10, 2018.
“Since Ashley disappeared nearly seven years ago, investigators have continuously followed up on numerous leads,” says Superintendent Josh Graham, Officer in Charge of Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes Branch.
“Searching the river is another step in our investigation to find out what happened to Ashley and hold the person, or persons, who took Ashley away from her family accountable.”
Saskatchewan RCMP Major Crimes Branch HCU continues to actively investigate the disappearance of Ashley, who investigators believe is the victim of a homicide, and Battlefords RCMP continues to support this investigation.
Anyone with information about Ashley’s disappearance is urged to report it to police. Tips can be submitted by calling 310-RCMP (7267) or local police of jurisdiction. Information can also be submitted anonymously by contacting Saskatchewan Crime Stoppers at 1-800-222-TIPS (8477) or .
