Steinbach, Man., RCMP say they’re hoping the public can help them identify an unknown woman who was recently brought to the local hospital.

According to police, the mystery woman was picked up by a driver while hitchhiking on Highway 1 near Highway 12 on Saturday — and as she appeared to be in distress, the driver brought her to hospital.

Although she was discharged Sunday, she had no ID and was unable to provide details about her identity or where she lives. She’s temporarily being housed by RCMP until they can figure out where to take her. Police said she needs additional care and they want to determine who she is.
