HALIFAX – The sister of a missing university student in Halifax made an emotional appeal Friday for help in finding the young Inuit woman, saying her older sibling would do exactly the same thing if she disappeared.
Delilah Terriak asked anyone who may have seen Loretta Saunders or her blue car to contact police.
Saunders is originally from Labrador and is a student at Saint Mary’s University.
The 26-year-old was last seen on the morning of Feb. 13.
Terriak says her sister is set to graduate from university in May and is doing her thesis on missing and murdered aboriginal women.
Saunders’s car was found earlier this week near Windsor, Ontario, and Halifax police issued arrest warrants for two people who appeared in court Friday.
Ontario Provincial Police say they arrested 25-year-old Blake Leggette and 28-year-old Victoria Henneberry on charges of possession of stolen property, which were stayed Friday.
A justice of the peace ordered them remanded for up to six days to give authorities from Nova Scotia time to bring them back to Halifax.
A provincial court document filed by Halifax police alleges the pair stole the 2000 Toyota Celica that belongs to Saunders.
