SASKATOON – Mounties are asking the public for help in locating a missing woman. Sheree Fertuck, 51, who is from Saskatoon, was last seen Monday around 1:30 p.m. CT leaving her family’s farm yard near Highway 15 east of Kenaston.

A semi truck she hauls gravel with was found Tuesday morning at a gravel pit further east off of Highway 15. On Tuesday evening, RCMP conducted an unsuccessful ground search of the area with help from the police dog service.

Investigators cannot say if Sheree’s disappearance is suspicious; however, they say it’s certainly out of character for her to be out of contact with her family.

The major crime unit, general investigation section and historical case unit are assisting with the search. RCMP say it’s typical to bring in additional investigators for assistance with such aspects as conducting interviews.

Fertuck is five-foot four, 250 pounds with graying brown hair and blue eyes. She was last seen wearing grey sweat pants, a grey sweater and white running shoes.
