CALGARY – Police are investigating a bizarre discovery in Fish Creek Park to see if it could be connected to the disappearance of a missing Calgary woman.

Photos of a woman were discovered attached to trees in the provincial park earlier this week.

Officers were alerted to the pictures by Fish and Wildlife officers, and have spent the last two days scouring the area for clues.

Investigators say they aren’t sure what they’re dealing with, but the discovery comes as police probe the disappearance of 25-year-old Shannon Madill (Burgess).

Madill was last seen by family at her home in the 1900 block of Spiller Road S.E. around 12:30 a.m. on Thursday, November 27th.

Her family later reported her missing on December 1st.

Investigators are looking into the photos due to the odd location where they were discovered.

The woman pictured in them had her face covered by flowers and her hair, so investigators were unable to immediately tell if it was Madill but say it does have some similarities to her.

Police say these could be memorial photos, but they aren’t sure at this point.

Officers brought a cadaver dog to the park on Tuesday, taping off an area near Bow Bottom Trail.

Shannon Madill (Burgess) was last seen by family at her home in the 1900 block of Spiller Rd. southeast around 12:30 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 27th, 2014.
