Just after 5 p.m. on May 6, a young woman was seen entering a trail and wooded area near Rotary Park, south of the soccer fields toward the Legion Sub.

Kids playing soccer nearby heard a dog barking and a scream and instantly went into the wooded area to see if the female was OK. Nothing was found. The kids reported it to their parents and the police. Chetwynd RCMP examined the area but did not find anybody.
