The Prince Albert Police Service says it’s still following up on tips that may be connected to a woman’s disappearance over three years ago.

Happy Marie Charles was last seen on April 3, 2017, in the vicinity of the Prince Albert Collegiate Institute on 20th Street West.

Police announced on Tuesday they had recently searched a property outside the city that was identified as a possible location connected to Charles’ disappearance.

Investigators said, unfortunately, the rural Saskatchewan area described is vast and there wasn’t enough information to determine the exact location identified.
