After almost two weeks since 32-year-old Shannon White of Kamloops went missing, new information has led the RCMP to a trailer park near Kamloops. This, as nearly 100 people came together to raise awareness about her disappearance in a massive "jeep rally." Reporter Kristen Robinson has more – Nov 13, 2021

Kamloops RCMP says new information has led them to an area west of the city as they search for a woman missing since Nov. 1.

Police believe Shannon White left her home in Lower Sahali around 8 a.m. that day, but never arrived as scheduled for an 8:30 a.m. shift at her job on Notre Dame Drive.

White’s vehicle was found parked on Nicola Street near 3rd Avenue the next day.

Police say they’ve since learned that White’s vehicle left Kamloops for about 45 minutes on Nov.1, not long after she was supposed to arrive at work.

The vehicle was spotted heading west on the Trans Canada Highway, which police say led them and Kamloops Search and Rescue to the area being searched on Friday.
