Members of the RCMP’s Saskatoon historical case unit are searching the North Saskatchewan River for missing people.
Officials believe there are three people who have gone missing in the river since 1981.
The most recent person is Bernice Carnahan.
Last month, her vehicle was located near the river and a canine search followed a track to the river.

The underwater recovery team was unable to locate her.
This is the second such operation by the historical case unit this year.
In June, Mounties teamed up with the Canadian Armed Forces to search the South Saskatchewan River from Saskatoon to “the forks,” the juncture of the North and South Saskatchewan Rivers.
That operation was undertaken to search for five individuals.
Police believe those bodies may have floated past the forks towards Nipawin.
Mounties will spend the next few days flying over the river from North Battleford to Nipawin searching for Carnahan along with the other missing people.
